I thought you were being facetious, but no. This is literally just vending machines.
“Innovator”…I gotta admit that the corporate speak is well tuned to get him some VC money so he can fucking ruin his business and golden parachute out when legit consumers say “fuck this shit”.
Seriously. Vending machines are definitely a cool combination of tech and robotics these days, but saying “let’s put toothpaste in it” doesn’t make this guy some kind of visionary genius like the article wants us to believe.
Has anyone watched Anime? Like they (and japan?) had the idea to put darn near anything in a vending machine a while ago.
