Robots, Amazon Bans, and the Data Center Bigger Than Manhattan | 05-22-26

from NPI TechGuys · host Jay Hill / Sam Bushman

Sam Bushman and Jay Harrison dig into the tech headlines shaking up jobs, shopping, and the American landscape. Robotics firms are ditching sewing for gluing in garment manufacturing, and it could bring textile work back to the US. Amazon is using AI to flag and ban accounts that abuse returns, including Jay's own empty box saga. The public is turning on AI as job fears grow and graduation crowds boo speakers who mention it. Kevin O'Leary is pushing a data center in Utah bigger than Manhattan that could need 16 billion gallons of water a year. And Starlink is raising prices again.
