    The strange thing about fast food places is that there’s no “train of food” where you just have to order in a screen and a robotic line makes your food. I’d say it’s one of the first places that could do that.

      We’ve seen a few robot restaurants open in the past few years. I wonder how they’re getting on. I remember at least one was a failure because it needed humans to supervise everything.

        Food is just unpredictable. What shape is lettuce?

        Word on the street is that robots that can chop and sautee carefully provided ingredients themselves are probably coming, but that’s more evolution than revolution. The big space to watch is AIs taking your order in a more human way.
