I don't know about China, but I live in Japan and most konbini I have visited still have real human cashiers.

Huh, in Tokyo and Osaka I didn’t encounter a 7-11 without self checkout as an option. The smaller convenience stores sure, but not 7-11. China is much more aggressive in this regard though.
