An almost fully-automated restaurant in Pasadena, California, is using robot cooks and AI-powered ordering kiosks. Joy Benedict has the story.
the only tipping with AI providing the food service will be if it gets the order wrong. then it gets tipped over.
Eventually these machines will be sabotaged.
Reminds me of an Automat cafeteria in Philadelphia where i went a few times with a parent. I remember that it had great slices of cherry pie. Put coins in slot , open your selection door, get PIE. Analog presentation of the future.
McDonald’s kiosk is laughable terrible.

Thanks for touching base. I thought it might be me. I was trying to order a Big Mac with lettuce and ketchup. When I went to check my order, it just said lettuce and ketchup. No Big Mac.
For a moment I contemplated having a lunch of just lettuce and ketchup. Then I said to hell with it, and left.
An almost fully-automated restaurant in Pasadena, California will never do!
I want a fully automated restaurant AI restaurant in Pasadena, California...
Yes, but it will be for the techs that keep the place running.
You Luddite, you.
Not saying I will do it, but somebody will.
I was in a restaurant about a year ago, and they had a little terminal on the table, where you would stick your credit card in the slot to pay the bill.
I wonder if it throws a monkey wrench into the system, if you would try to pay with cash and not a credit card.
That’s because leftists aren’t even human!
Robot is not likely to spit on your food.
I'd also be concerned about cleanliness. Or a bug crawling onto the burger before being cooked. Anyone notice? That is where AI might be helpful.
one burger every 2 minutes equals 30 burgers/hr ... unless they install a conga line of each of the various EXPENSIVE machines, they’ll NEVER handle the rush at meal times and the restaurant will fail within days ...
You have a choice. Spit or hydraulic fluid. Name your poison.
Thanks, I’d take the Automat instead.
