>Japan’s famously conscientious but overburdened baggage handlers will soon be joined by extra staff at Tokyo’s Haneda airport – although their new colleagues will need to take regular recharging breaks.>Japan Airlines will introduce humanoid robots on a trial basis from the beginning of May, with a view to deploying them permanently as a solution to the country’s chronic labour shortage.>The Chinese-made humanoids will move travellers’ luggage and cargo on the tarmac at Haneda, which handles more than 60 million passengers a year.>JAL and its partner in the initiative, Japan Airlines GMO Internet Group, hope the experiment – which ends in 2028 – will lessen the burden on human employees amid a surge in inbound tourism and forecasts of more severe labour shortages.>In a demonstration for the media this week, a 130cm-tall robot manufactured by Hangzhou-based Unitree was seen tentatively “pushing” cargo on to a conveyer belt next to a JAL passenger plane and waving to an unseen colleague.https://www.theguardian.com/world/2026/apr/28/humanoid-robots-baggage-handlers-japan-airports
>>534031663It's an experiment, and it'll fail. Indians are still the better investment.

>>534031663Man, this is so ridiculous.Elites really want a world where all the work is made by machines or slaves and still somehow there's tons of consumption from people with zero (0) money.
>>534031907Indians are a disease, you don't invest in them you are infected by them
>>534032380They don't know what they want and are very often buy into scams by fraudsters. They are greedy, uneducated, and stupid. They may be skilled in the art of the backstab and the finer points of how to secure power but they know little beyond that.They have all these ideas in their head about the future they have seen in movies and think they can make it a reality all while abdicating their responsibilities to the people they have been charged with shepherding.Eventually the whole house of cards is going to collapse and given the heights of western civilization the fall is going to be quite far and the damage is going to be severe.
>>534031663>experiment>media demo>sponsored by chineseshut up retard, these chink bots will never replace human as baggage handlers its an extremely stressful job that requires strength and intelligence, you have one fuck with crashing into planes, walking near live engines or damaging cargo and its game over. They also don't hire poojeets for this, they are too stupid for this job.If you actually look at what poojeets work at, its basically illegal/corrupt construction labourers, factory work that are 10-12hr shifts, restaurants (run by indians), hospitality (Indian/chinese hotel night staff/online only staff, 7/11, Janitor. Japanese don't even trust them to do age care.
>>534032380We've been heading into plutonomy and rising wealth inequality is a feature, not a bug. Your consumption becomes less and less relevant.
>>534031663And how much does each robot cost to assemble? Not even accounting for maintenance costs
>>534031663I got a bag for them to handle, alright.
>>534031907> an Indian costs less than a chinkbot
>>534032735>Japanese don't even trust them to do age care.Lmao. Outed yourself as never having visited Japan.https://web.archive.org/web/20251218000234/https://english.kyodonews.net/articles/-/66795
>>534031907Quite literally investing in a walking sack of shit that just creates more shit exponentially. Why do you have such pride but want to leave your shithole? Stay there
>>534031663If i know baggage handlers, that bag on his back is for its own stash that accidentally becomes separated from the luggage it was hidden in.
>>534031663>>The Chinese-made humanoidsOh this outta be good.
>>534031907I rather take a Muslim.
>>534031663fake robots do not solve anything lol
>>534031663It's the best solution for the labor-shortage.Bye bye immigrants, good luck.
why can't japan make their own robots though? I thought that was the one meme that japan had
>>534035476poland is already ahead of the curve
>>534036046>>534035476forgot to paste the linkhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hEsGe5WiiZQ
>>534035918AI will replace white-collar jobs far before robots replace human labor slaves.
>>534032842they're selling them for 13k on their websitehttps://shop.unitree.com/products/unitree-g1but I imagine you get a discount for bulk orders
>>534035966In Japan, there is a greater emphasis on purpose-specific machines than on humanoid robots.However, inspired by the recent developments in humanoid robots in the US and China, Japan is also developing humanoid robots.
>>534036411make them cute catgirls with wet pussies, china won't do that, it's a market to corner
>>534036188the better AI gets the better robots also get, since it's one thing to make a mechanic puppet, it's another thing to have it listen to orders and do tasks
>>534032380Look at this stupid fucking luggage boy who is against technological progress. He wants to live in a world where everything has to be done by humans. No machines, no automation, just struggle and toil every day.
>>534036411Why didn't you build a purpose-specific robot for this task? Seems trivial.
>>534031663Poos should not be allowed to touch the private property of civilized peoples.
