an associate has just changed jobs..
he was a risk manager helping a company predict risks, then plan with how to deal with risks, etc...
now.
he has the AI point man for the very large company.

the bottom line is that many many folks will lose their jobs.
that bottom line has been hard for me to understand .
we frequent Sam's store in our area's big city. 1 out of 4 visits or so, we see this older guy that has been there for decades, riding around on a noisey floor cleaner.
today i heard the machine and knew what it was. it's loud and has warning horns.
as it got closer i realized the old gent wasn't on it... i started preparing to shut it off. then i saw it make a series of two turns, both times stopping twice for civilians and for shopping buggies.
on closer inspection realized that there was a small metal post on the side witih various small machines attached... i watched carefully for the old gent who always smiles and nods. i figured he'd be doing something else... didn't see him...
i suspect they let him go...
??
then i went to the front check out area. i have continuously refused to do the self check out. but i've now liearned how. it's not that hard, and checked myself out.
on prior visits even though the two ladies at the exit door recognize me, they would take my receipt and look in my buggy. for the last 2 months we walk under some kind of super quiet machine, and that machine sends a message to the lady at the door that all is ok... or tells her i forgot to add an item and it gets embarrassing.!
