Yeah if we had some kind of Universal housing and UBI guarantees then why not replace the clerk with AI - it's a terrible job being a sin eater for treat getters.
But this is just going to fuck already precarious people over so it's pretty much demonic.
I can see the treat getters absolutely revolting over this though and getting it banned. For many people having a little servant is the whole point of going out to eat.
It's ridiculous that capitalism turns automation into something bad. Automation, meaning less labor needing to be done, should be great for society. But because the means of production are owned by like 1000 people across the world, all it does is enrich those 1000 while the rest of the world has to fight for scraps.
i wouldnt hate it if the eventual result wasn't "oh sweet one less person to pay."

Yea that's the tragedy of all of this. So many jobs that are built around your capacity to absorb anger that should be directed towards management. :citations-needed:
Don't worry, automation means productivity gains and greater employment, which I learned from cherrypicked anecdotes about ATMs.
The outcome will be 3-4X as many Wendy's. More Wendy's' than you want. Have you had breakfast at a Wendy's lately? Well you're in luck!
This is how the Food Wars starts. Taco Bell has been stockpiling weapons for this moment.
