Tangentially, I recall in orientation for becoming a cashier at Sobeys they talked about this technology... that was back in like 2005. It was a "future state" where cashiers would be obsolete. I see that is still not a reality, and I thought it totally baffling and demotivating to describe to workers how they would be automated away during their training.
Not sure what it's like in Canada, but self checkout has taken over in Australia. Some stores have only 1 or 2 cashiers - it's all self checkout now.
