Robots could soon replace humans to deliver your Amazon orders
Amazon is developing humanoid robots that could soon replace human delivery workers, with plans to have the machines "spring out" of Rivian electric vans to deliver packages directly to customers' doors. The e-commerce giant has constructed a "humanoid park" testing facility at its San Francisco office, according to a report by The Information. The indoor obstacle course, roughly the size of a coffee shop, features a Rivian delivery van where Amazon will test various humanoid robots in simulated delivery scenarios. The company is developing artificial intelligence software to power these robots while using hardware from external manufacturers. One robot being tested is a $16,000 unit from China-based Unitree, though Amazon plans to evaluate multiple humanoid models during the trials. Once testing concludes at the facility, Amazon intends to conduct real-world "field trips" where robots will attempt actual package deliveries to homes. The robots would travel in the back of Amazon's fleet of over 20,000 Rivian electric vans, potentially speeding up delivery times by allowing simultaneous drops at multiple addresses. This initiative represents a significant expansion of Amazon's existing robotics program. The company already uses autonomous robots extensively in its warehouses and has previously trialed Agility Robotics' humanoid "Digit" robot for logistics tasks. However, deploying humanoid robots for last-mile delivery in uncontrolled outdoor environments presents new technical challenges. The development coincides with Amazon's broader AI push announced Wednesday, which includes agentic AI systems for warehouse operations and generative AI for enhanced delivery mapping. The company is also working on smart eyeglasses for drivers that would provide hands-free navigation and delivery instructions. Amazon's humanoid delivery robot project could eventually impact hundreds of thousands of delivery jobs globally, as the company seeks to fully automate package delivery from warehouse to doorstep. The timeline for real-world deployment remains unclear, with testing still in early phases. AI Masterclass for Students. Upskill Young Ones Today!– Join Now

Why Anthropic CEO Dario Amodei thinks a 10-year AI regulation freeze is dangerous
Dario Amodei, Chief Executive of AI firm Anthropic, has criticised a Republican proposal to halt state-level regulation of artificial intelligence for ten years, calling the measure "far too blunt" in a sharply worded opinion piece published inThe New York Times. The proposal, reportedly embedded within former President Donald Trump's revived tax cut bill, seeks to prevent individual US states from enforcing their own AI regulations. This move, backers say, is intended to create a unified national framework. However, it has faced significant pushback, including from a bipartisan coalition of state attorneys general who have already enacted safeguards against high-risk AI use. You may be interested in Amodei, whose company is backed by Amazon, argued that the rapid pace of AI advancement demands a more agile and balanced approach. 'A 10-year moratorium is far too blunt an instrument. AI is advancing too head-spinningly fast,' he wrote. 'Without a clear plan for a federal response, a moratorium would give us the worst of both worlds — no ability for states to act, and no national policy as a backstop.' Instead, Amodei called for a coordinated effort between the White House and Congress to develop a federal transparency standard. Such a framework, he suggested, would compel AI developers to openly disclose their testing methods, risk mitigation strategies, and national security considerations prior to releasing advanced models. Anthropic already shares these details publicly, Amodei noted, and rivals OpenAI and Google DeepMind have adopted similar practices. However, he cautioned that voluntary transparency may not be sustainable as AI systems become more powerful and commercial stakes rise. 'Legislative incentives may become necessary to ensure this openness continues,' he said. Amodei's intervention adds weight to calls for a federal framework that preserves public safety while ensuring that innovation is not stifled, a balance that may prove increasingly difficult to strike as AI tools become more sophisticated and deeply embedded in daily life.
