"Amazon Abandons 'Just Walk Out' Technology for Grocery Store Checkouts"

TL;DR Summary
Amazon is phasing out its checkout-less grocery stores with "Just Walk Out" technology, replacing it with Dash Carts and self-checkout counters. The move comes as the company aims to improve the reliability of its checkout systems and expand its presence in the supermarket industry. Just Walk Out, which relied on cameras and sensors, faced challenges such as delayed receipts and offshore cashiers rewatching videos to assign items. Amazon Fresh stores will now feature the new Dash Carts and self-checkout counters, signaling a shift away from the expensive and labor-intensive Just Walk Out technology.
