"We are sure that our customers will enjoy shopping and being

If robots can sell coffee machines I think that they can probably
say,
"With Fries?" and it is very likely that if the Nestle experiment
works, and there at present at least one Japanese company that is
currently using robots in their outlets, that companies like
Macdonald's will be looking at the same solution.
=================
The problem being robots do no drink cocoa or eat
hamburgers... and the displaced workers will still have to
eat.



Maybe they do not have to eat -- or put it another way, we will not
feed them. Then the dumbest half of people will die off, then a half
of what remained, as the robots get smarter.

Then only one person will remain.

We must ensure that the robots will want to keep us as pets.


We must ensure that the AIs are never completely in control.


Hackers will always find a way to control the AIs.
