I always thought it was amusing when people said it would replace burger flippers and the like. Why? They're cheap, and that's relatively expensive/difficult to automate. The slightly higher paid manager though? Ripe for automation.

- ryuker16 9y agoSame here....I suspect it's middle and lower managers that will be first to be obliterated. Cashiers don't simple run the register, they do other stuff. Janitors fix stuff and carry heavy boxes, etc. Managers and supervisors? Overpaid if they're doing the above or doing something can be automated.
- gowld 9y ago> They're cheap, and that's relatively expensive/difficult to automate. that's a weird thing to say, because burger flippers ARE automated -- 99% of the work of making a McDonald's burger is already automated, only the remaining hard-to-automate 1% is left for the humans.
