quote:

“Flippy”, a robotic kitchen assistant, is the creation of Miso Robotics, an engineering firm specializing in “adaptable robotics” for commercial kitchens. Miso's goal is to develop technology that can handle hazardous, tedious and time-sensitive aspects of cooking, from flipping burgers to frying chicken, cutting vegetables or final plating...in other words, all of the minimum wage restaurant jobs where employee costs just skyrocketed courtesy of economics-challenged politicians.



quote:

Per Nation's Restaurant News, 'Flippy' is no longer just a concept as it won its first major contract with CaliBurger which vowed to roll out the burger-flipping technology in all of its 50 global locations by the end of 2019.

How long before non of us have to work?


How long before an Attorney represents the Robots for better conditions?

When will they unionize?

And Last..... When will the first marriage between robot and human happen?

Good. Those worthless fricks at BK aren't worth $2/hr much less $15.

So Wendy's is replacing the people who takes the order and Cali-burger is taking removing the cook.

Will the robots be constructed so they can also spit on our burgers just because they may be in a foul mood that day?

That's all I'm concerned about.

Once the burger flippers are liberated from their menial jobs, they will be free to produce art that benefits society

...and it will be a complete disaster. As long as there is even one person in the country making more than the UBI, the UBI will never be enough. Politicians will act accordingly.

If their robots don't work any better than ours at my place of employment, humans are ok for a while.
Many task at my job are done by automated laser guided robots, but they are constantly losing their way, getting stuck and simply freezing up. It's a full time jog to keep chasing them down and manually getting them to do what they are suposed to do automatically.

They'd work better if you gave them a raise

Great idea and it seems inevitable. One unforeseen problem may be how to replace all the SS payments that will keep SS floating for a few more years.

That's a joke. That's the best they could do?
