Berkshire Grey

and is supervising and watching over those robots as there's exceptions, as things need to be fixed or repaired.

So he's become from like a on the floor kind of lead on box handling, labeling, compliance, and things for retail distribution to now managing and supervising these robots and being able to repair them and fix them as well, right? So I think the career map there, the easier it is for the systems or the automation, the robotics you choose, can be pretty easy to evolve someone into being able to work with these, right? And even if we look at, I was just at Berkshire Gray as well two weeks ago, and And they're unloading robot, right? Their goal is to be able to have an employee that can oversee like multiple bots at a time, right? And that's the goal of many of these robotics companies as well.

So we quickly see, you know, people start to get away from some of that, you know, backbreaking work in a sense, especially when we talk about unloading floor loaded containers, right? But a lot of that kind of manual handling and movement and moving more into the exception handling, moving more into the supervision of the robotics perspective, managing the fleet and things like that.

So we start to shift more into like a. almost a technician type role.

Well, it's good to be here with you.

You're fresh off a visit to Berkshire Grey today.

How was that?

It was great.

And so, uh, big thanks to, uh, CEO Dave Sarator, uh, who I interviewed recently, uh, and the company for showing me around.

Uh, I got to see their headquarters in, um, Bedford, Massachusetts.

Uh, and I got to see the systems that Berkshire Grey is working on.

Uh, everything from picking, from AutoStore automated storage and, and retrieval systems, to truck unloading, to picking.
