AI6YR BenI see the whole "dancing robot" thing is going great in Silicon Valley.
Full video... surprised the thing did not break her arms, actually. https://www.youtube.com/shorts/weQSGxUGTDI
I think this is one of the "fully automated" Chinese food chains, there is one in Glendale, California. Basically, the robots microwave or cook the food, and some human has to bring it to you. Basically, they're attempting to decouple the skill/labor required for cooking food from humans, making the humans just an inconvenient cog you can pay minimum wage. I ran into one with my dad when he was here (quick food stop) and I was quite disturbed by the whole concept. If they could dispense with the humans (who are expensive and unreliable), they would.
Ah, yes... this chain

Okay, these people are sucking down the hype Koolaid. 🙄
We're WAY more likely to be in "Mad Max" barter town mode by 2060 than 3 billion helpful humanoid robots, buddy.
Paul_IPv6ninny-bots are way more likely than nanobots, with the purging of programming expertise in favor of LLM vibe coding too.

And they keep saying this as their’s truly (trump) and all the tech guys are 100% behind bombing the Middle East and all of its oil and natural gas resources and processing into oblivion.
Nobody’s bothered to tell them I guess what that would mean for their data center energy costs as well as all the resources needed to build them in the first place.
They think they’re going to make lots of money off of economic chaos, sure if it’s within reason

With all of this happening, it does feel like a grand scale chuckle cluster fuck.
Down the ages, straight into antiquity, the folly of the superrich of the people at top have been responsible for the destruction of civilizations over and over and over again.
And gosh, darn it their record has remained completely unblemished
