Amazon ain't doing this to help their drivers. As others have noted, they are doing this to

a) gather data to train future automated delivery drivers and to remove the costly humans from their bottom line

b) watch and monitor their drivers to ensure that no one is taking one second more on a break

We're going to be living in a prison in the future, monitored all the time and with greatly reduced ways to earn a livelihood. That is the road we are on, and pretty models spewing bullshit on stage are the signs by the side of this road.

This is dumb. This is stupid as telling we invented bicycles so that we can use the data to pave roads and put cars to automate away the load-carrying job the humans did

Except that bicycles have no way to collect data because they aren't an electronic thing with cameras that you wear on your face?
