Amazon has recently launched a new artificial intelligence (AI) system aimed at simplifying the process for delivery drivers to find packages in their cluttered trucks during deliveries.

At a media event in Nashville, Amazon announced that this technology will project green circles on the packages to be delivered whenever a shipment arrives at a delivery address, while marking the next package to be delivered with a red cross.
