    But an AI robot will scoop the ice cream automatically!!! Isn't it great how they don't even have to confront how much of their lifestyle is built off the backs of highly exploited low wage labor, even domestically?

      I saw a coffee truck where the coffee was prepared by a robotic arm, but there was still a guy in the truck operating it. I was like, can't he just pour it??? Where does the robot come in???

        I saw a video of a robotic bartender in Vegas. It was a table-size machine that would mix a cocktail off a select menu for you. Did it more slowly and clumsily than even the most novice human bartender, less selection than a human, unable to deviate from its recipe (hope you don't like your martini extra dry), and more expensive cocktail in the end.

          who is asking for this shit

          edit ESPECIALLY in a bartender, like half your job is to be a shoulder for your drunken patrons to cry on, or a charming personality to make them forget their troubles
