You might not can buy stock in White Castle (racist name!!!) But you can in McDonalds.
This is from last year!

In 2019, the restaurant chain bought a tech startup called Apprente and renamed it McD Tech Labs. As part of the partnership, IBM will acquire the company.
McDonald’s has already tested the tech developed by Apprente at several restaurants in Chicago this summer.
At the time, McDonald’s claimed the system could already handle about 80 percent of the orders that come its way, filling them with about 85 percent accuracy.

Are the robots paid $15/hr?

McDonald's Buzz Lightyear milkshake machines never work, so this has a hole in the ground you throw money into written all over it.

I'd pay a few bucks extra to hear a digitized voice tell me to pull-up for the spicy.

If your social score is not in the 'right' mind you will not be allowed a Big Mac.

Why aren't Democrat lawmakers attempting to ban automation like this? I thought they were fighting for the working man

The response to $15 min wage

I'm pretty sure Wendy's at some point at some locations was using some kind of remote call center for order taking at the drive through, very pleasant voices and all the required upselling etc, and you pull around to the window and it is absolutely not the person you were just talking to at the menu board.

Robot cleaning? Who cleans the robots?

These robots better have sassy attitudes and speak in Ebonics.
