Walmart has fired 500 robots. Bet you never thought you'd read that headline in your lifetime. You might have seen that plot in a science fiction movie, but... The robots were tasked with the simple job of rolling up and down the isles scanning for what is no longer on the shelves and ordering more. Walmart found that people do the job better, and cheaper. The company that made the robots is Bossa Nova Co. Remember that name. I'm sure it will come back to haunt us when the robots rebel.
