Reminds me of the film "Minority Report."

    I wonder how long it will be before all the Walmart greeters lose their job to a hologram.

    Just when you think you've got it all figured out, someone changes the rules.

      That's actually a great idea for an industry. I can see it now.

      Store greeters. com

      Or they'll just simply replace the annoying security sound when you exit walmart:

      "Excuse me, it appears you have stolen some of our merchandise, kindly turn around and turn yourself in to walmart security staff. Thank you. Good day."

        They have tried to do EXACTLY that! I was greated maybe 5 times with a beep or something claiming that I stole something, though I hadn't. I WAIT! I reach for my receipt, etc... They INVARIABLY wave me through! I'm not complaining! I WAS innocent! But what if I WEREN'T!?!?!?

        THEY don't trust it, so WHY SHOULD WE?

      What a dull, bland and boring world that would be and eventually would become extinct. I don't think autotrons or holograms can procreate or is there an app for that?
