This pilot would be followed by the launch of five additional sites in 2029\u2014each estimated at roughly $85 million\u2014and 10 more locations by 2030.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">If these plans are fully realized, the project would push Amazon&#8217;s total investment in Tetromino past the $530 million mark by 2029, Business Insider reported.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">In terms of performance, the highly automated setup is projected to process packages at roughly 2.5 times the rate of Amazon&#8217;s current delivery station designs. Delivery stations serve as the final logistical stop, receiving packages from fulfillment centers and prepping them for drivers to deliver directly to customers.  <\/p>\n<p>        <strong>AI Partnerships And The &#8216;Tetris&#8217; Challenge<\/strong>          <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Business Insider notes that a key piece of the Tetromino technological puzzle might come from Boxbot, an AI and supply chain robotics startup. Boxbot&#8217;s system moves packages from conveyor belts to storage trays, then uses AI to sequence them for delivery. According to the startup&#8217;s website, this automated method can expedite the vehicle-loading phase by up to 10 times.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">The internal codename, Tetromino, reportedly nods to the classic puzzle video game Tetris. This reflects the complex, puzzle-like challenge of efficiently organizing and packing parcels into delivery vehicles.  <\/p>\n<p>            <strong>Amazon&#8217;s Response<\/strong>         <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">After the internal memos leaked, an Amazon spokesperson told Business Insider that Project Tetromino remains an &#8220;early-stage concept.&#8221; The representative disputed the document&#8217;s financial projections and timelines, calling them inaccurate and saying they do not reflect the company&#8217;s current plans.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">However, the spokesperson confirmed the company&#8217;s ongoing commitment to testing new technologies that enhance employee safety and the overall customer experience.  <\/p>\n<p>       <strong>AMZN Stock: Retail View<\/strong>         <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Retail sentiment on Stocktwits was &#8216;bearish&#8217; with &#8216;low&#8217; message volumes.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">AMZN stock has gained 13% year-to-date.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">For updates and corrections, email newsroom[at]stocktwits[dot]com.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"text text-block paragraph text-left neo-font-paragraph-xl-reg  yf-18d6y07\" style=\"text-decoration: none; font-style: normal; text-transform: none; text-align: inherit; font-variant-numeric: normal;\">Shashank Nayar has no position in any of the stocks mentioned in this article.
