Robots making food

[shoshi]

What do you think of robots replacing humans for low skill jobs such as fast food?

Don't have a problem with it but machines do not do well when things go wrong so they still need a human or two.

I find it rather interesting, but that means that many other businesses are going to be shorthanded.

That too.

I may sound insensitive calling those jobs low skilled. I would not my job taken by AI. But it seems robots doing these jobs is the future.

Eventually they will deliver by an autonomous vehicle. How much to you tip those things?

Automation is what it is. A relative works in a food processing plant, mostly making fresh pasta and sauces. It is all pretty mechanized but crap goes wrong on almost a daily basis that needs attending to. The dough in particular is very finicky. I would think in fast food, it wouldn't take the robot screwing up an order more than once or twice before people stopped coming.
