I for one would welcome automation in fast food industry. Besides the fact that a teen standing in front of a vat of hot oil cooking fries and flipping burgers is a waste of time if we could automate it humans should be free of this kind of useless service, I would also enjoy getting exactly what I ordered. The robot isn’t going to accidentally add pickles or forget to add gravy or dip. I would welcome the day I don’t have to inspect my order. On my first point the only problem I see is people need money and those have forever been entry level jobs. What would replace those incomes I don’t know but standing in front of oil is not very good way to spend your time.
