Ive done warehouse work. Using technology to squeeze every inch of “productivity” from a human being rather than trying to meaningfully improve their lives is dystopian.
Forklifts are dystopian, just technology squeezing out more productivity. It would be better to have to carry everything by hand, like nature intended.
That’s obviously a false equivalence. Forklifts and manual pickers fulfil different roles in the warehouse. This technology would only be viable to the business if ot drastically increased the expectation on the pickers.
Forklifts also replace physical work. This headset wouldnt.
If you think that’s dystopian then either you don’t know what dystopian means or you don’t know what warehouse workers already deal with.
