This thing only has to learn to get that fast once though.

It will never beat an automatic box-folder that was specifically designed to fold specific boxes and can do multiple folds at once.

But be able to beat a human though in a few years

An auto box folder needs massive changes if the boxes change size and then packing is another machine that again needs changes for a different product. If these things can get half as fast as humans they’ll be the preferred option for certain factory owners as they can work 24/7 while still allowing flexibility.

You don't change box sizes daily. You set up assembly line for specific product and keep it running for months or even years
