I had no idea. There was an Amazon Go right in my workplace in 2019 (Brookfield Place) and I got lunches there almost daily. I loved it -- felt like magic, and it was crazy fast. I guess it was just an illusion (as all magic is).

There was something similar run by a German university near the hotel I was staying at. As an American I had to use the cashier like normal but they had signs about how the Amazon-Go like process the students were experimenting with would work, including picture and descriptions on how to help it not be confused.
