Prophecies from a Supermarket Guru

摘要

Let's say you go grocery shopping in the future. You visit a small store, close to home, probably after making a reservation. In the back half of the building, a network of robots builds your online order of packaged goodswhile you browse lor Iresh bread, Iruit and a cut of mahi-mahi for the grill. You pay for the entire thing through a phone app and just walk out. No more checkout lines or lonely walks down an entire condiment aisle just to select your favorite mayonnaise.
