Lolu hlobo lokuhlasela luhlala lubangela ukwethuka, kodwa umthengisi ubike ukuthi kwezinye izimo, imikhiqizo ehlonzwe yi-Amazon njengemithi yokubulala izinambuzane ayikwazi ukuncintisana nemithi yokubulala izinambuzane, okuyinto ehlekisayo. Isibonelo, umthengisi uthole isaziso esifanele sencwadi esetshenzisiwe ethengiswe ngonyaka odlule, okungeyona imithi yokubulala izinambuzane.
“Izibulala-zinambuzane namadivayisi ezibulala-zinambuzane ahlanganisa imikhiqizo ehlukahlukene, futhi kunzima ukunquma ukuthi yimiphi imikhiqizo efanelekile nokuthi kungani,” kusho i-Amazon ku-imeyili yayo yokuqala yesaziso. Kodwa abathengisi babike ukuthi bathole izaziso zeminye yemikhiqizo yabo, okuhlanganisa izikhulumi, isofthiwe yokulwa namagciwane kanye nomcamelo obonakala ungahlobene nezibulala-zinambuzane.
Abezindaba bakwamanye amazwe basanda kubika inkinga efanayo. Umthengisi uthe i-Amazon isuse i-asin “engenacala” ngoba yayibhalwe ngephutha ngokuthi “isengezo sokuthuthukisa abesilisa be-rhinoceros”. Ingabe lolu hlobo lomcimbi lubangelwa amaphutha ohlelo, abanye abathengisi babeka ngephutha ukuhlukaniswa kwe-asin, noma ingabe i-Amazon ibeka ukufunda komshini kanye nekhathalogi ye-AI ngendlela ekhululekile kakhulu ngaphandle kokuqondiswa ngumuntu?
Umthengisi uthinteke “ngesiphepho sezibulala-zinambuzane” kusukela ngo-Ephreli 8 – isaziso esisemthethweni se-Amazon sitshela umthengisi:
"Ukuze uqhubeke nokunikeza imikhiqizo ethintekile ngemuva kukaJuni 7, 2019, udinga ukuqedela ukuqeqeshwa okufushane okuku-inthanethi bese uphumelela izivivinyo ezifanele. Ngeke ukwazi ukubuyekeza noma yimiphi imikhiqizo ethintekile kuze kube yilapho kutholakala imvume. Ngisho noma unikeza imikhiqizo eminingi, kufanele uthole ukuqeqeshwa futhi uphumelele isivivinyo ngesikhathi esisodwa. Lokhu kuqeqeshwa kuzokusiza ukuthi uqonde izibopho zakho zokulawula ze-EPA (National Environmental Protection Agency) njengomthengisi wezibulala-zinambuzane nemishini yezibulala-zinambuzane."
I-Amazon ixolisa kumthengisi
Ngo-Ephreli 10, umqondisi we-Amazon waxolisa “ngokuphazamiseka noma ukudideka” okubangelwe yi-imeyili:
"Muva nje kungenzeka ukuthi uthole i-imeyili evela kithi mayelana nezidingo ezintsha zokubeka izibulala-zinambuzane kanye nemishini yokubulala izinambuzane epulatifomu yethu. Izidingo zethu ezintsha azisebenzi ohlwini lwemikhiqizo yemidiya efana nezincwadi, imidlalo yevidiyo, i-DVD, umculo, omagazini, isofthiwe namavidiyo. Siyaxolisa nganoma yikuphi ukuphazamiseka noma ukudideka okubangelwe yile imeyili. Uma uneminye imibuzo, sicela uxhumane nosekelo lwesevisi yabathengisi."
Kunabathengisi abaningi abakhathazekile ngokuthunyelwa kwesaziso ngezibulala-zinambuzane kwi-inthanethi. Omunye wabo uphendule esihlokweni esithi “zingaki izikhala ezahlukene esizidingayo ku-imeyili yezibulala-zinambuzane?” lokhu sekuqala ukungicasula ngempela.
Ingemuva lokulwa kwe-Amazon nemikhiqizo yezibulala-zinambuzane
Ngokusho kwesitatimende sabezindaba esakhishwa yi-US Environmental Protection Agency ngonyaka odlule, i-Amazon yasayina isivumelwano sokuvumelana nale nkampani.
"Ngaphansi kwemigomo yesivumelwano sanamuhla, i-Amazon izokwakha inkambo yokuqeqesha eku-inthanethi ngemithethonqubo nezinqubomgomo zezibulala-zinambuzane, i-EPA ekholelwa ukuthi izonciphisa kakhulu inani lezibulala-zinambuzane ezingekho emthethweni ezitholakala ngeplatifomu eku-inthanethi. Ukuqeqeshwa kuzotholakala kubasebenzi bomphakathi kanye nabamaketha ku-inthanethi, okuhlanganisa nesiNgisi, iSpanishi kanye nesiShayina. Zonke izinhlangano ezihlela ukuthengisa izibulala-zinambuzane ku-Amazon kumele ziqede ngempumelelo ukuqeqeshwa. I-Amazon izokhokha nenhlawulo yokuphatha engu-$1215700 njengengxenye yesivumelwano kanye nomyalelo wokugcina osayinwe yi-Amazon kanye nehhovisi lesifunda le-EPA le-10 eSeattle, eWashington."
