Oh I remember this one, they had some very unnecessary looking robots: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkhWonFm-Lw https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TkhWonFm-Lw Why would you use a robot that puts the pizza into the oven instead of putting the oven over the conveyer belt? I don't know what they actually did but I couldn't think of any other reason than use it to claim you use robots so you can pull money from investors who would like to invest in robots. But maybe they had a reason for it, after all automated pizza production is nothing new. Right? Maybe it has something to do about baking it in trucks? Even then, it looks like a fake to me.

There seems to be some salvaged tech to be used. Like that pizza cutter ("robot") seems pretty neat. I think for me, once I saw that the driver takes out the pizza from an oven - I noped out. I don't want my driver to have to handle my pizza directly. You might as well have a food truck night in your neighborhood and one of those food trucks just be a pizza truck. Maybe it's hard for me to understand the problem, coming from CT, a pizza place was found on most business corners - think the closest one was three blocks away. My Brother worked at one 2 miles away, I worked at one 6 miles away. There were many many pizza places in between (you were seen in the wrong one, someone in the family got mad LOL)

If I saw that video as an investor, I’d pull my money. It’s so telling. All the “robots” do is pour sauce, spread it and then eventually put it in the oven and take it out? They still hire a person for the toppings. That’s like something my local pizzeria already does. A guy stretches the dough and lays it on a conveyer belt. They then have machines that are hand operated for the sauce and have the oven right in the belt. The pizza comes piping hot on the other side and a stamping like tool is used to cut the slices. Anytime a ceo for a company that wants to replace humans with robots claims that the thing the robots will do happens best when done with love, run.

Co-founder happy faced nice woman in the vid seemed pretty confident about how efficient everything was. Wonder how they drew up their numbers? Was really great to also hear her talk about what robots are good at, and what humans are good at - very insightful. I prefer operations and biz models that are less complex, this seems to have added lots of complexity? Seems super strange that you are automating the process except for when the toppings are added - that’s a human? Remember, it’s all love people, all love. (Vomit)
