Brian, you're a tireless knowledge, builder and wisdom machine. You sure you're not a robot? 😀 Many thanks.

Like retail where an associate monitors the customers (who are just in time cashiers) swiping their products and making their payments educators will be monitoring AI class assignments and will have AI assist with grading and feedback. With AI, humans will become agents for the

It's inevitable as competition heats up for low margin grocery products and customers ordering less than ten items based on 'just in time' needs and mindset will be building their own in house delivery services.

Lots of competition for grocery brewing, Competing for customer relationships, affordable prices, and healthier products. Expecting increased grocery delivery from Amazon for products like detergents and high velocity like coffee. Supermarket marketing needs to identify the

Amazon is one of the best grocery store one item or less delivery company. I've needed products from them where I could save money on laundry detergent and have only purchased one item and was okay about it and it saved me a few bucks. Amazon's delivery business model is quite

Get ready to pivot your AI mindset from participant to conductor. The train left the station and going on the express track. Excellent article.

Opening the bottle cap for a now 46 fluid ounce of Tropicana Orange Juice takes herculean effort. It's probably smart marketing because it's a sense of relief when you finally are able twist the cap open after five minutes instead of five seconds.

Getting a little pickier getting groceries. My mindset and budget is now buying 'one less item' to manage the basket of goods and save (actually spend less) money.

In the spirit of McLuhan Andrew McLuhan about the automobile: When a new medium reshapes how we live, familiar spaces quietly inherit new meaning.

Just got a copy of Joyce's Finnegan's Wake. Interesting book. The pages and words read like a never-ending conversation about communication.

It seems like it only took three years for AI to create a world of their own.

Feels like Brian Roemmele is a century ahead, which is not much, if so-called time is collapsing into space, or does not exist, about how AI is creating companies and compensating themselves. How fast is AI morphing. It's crazy.

If fast food ordering is about 50% of orders, wonder how a supermarket with a drive thru would do with ten items or less menu. Customers can order online or from a menu. Might work but needs coordination and planning.

The Instacart workers were working on the hour today. Lots of grocery shopping today.

Facing reality that AI performs many tasks well. I've spoken to a grocery manager about how AI is 10x effective forecasting grocery buying for managing inventory. Just in time ordering is another way it's excelling.

Grocery delivery is effective on cold days where people want to stay home. Logical. Customers may need groceries but when it's cold wish to stay home. Grocery delivery is effective on cold days and satisfied customers.

It's impressive, but part of the job, when stock clerks and team leaders work several pallets of products by restocking and replenishing to shelves from the stockroom in a few hours.

Learning progresses with persistent practice whether using a pallet jack, solving calculus problems, which may take longer to master, or playing a musical instrument. The will and incentive to practice is fueled by enthusiasm, encouragement from mentors, and time to focus.

It's inevitable AI will help improve efficiency in grocery sales, buying products, forecasting sales, inventory management, and merchandising.

Thanks and congrats to all the supermarket workers getting food on the shelves, unloading trucks, helping customers, and making a difference. Stock clerks, by the way, are interesting and resourceful. They're problem solvers, good at organizing and assembling products and
