Isn't robot healthcare essentially just the manufacturer's warranty?

This is caliburger

They never actually use it except for promo events

A human has to finish the actual burger. The arm can only grill and clean

just because something is self aware doesn't mean its not stuck wagecucking

[Anonymous No.13030735]

Why would it need to wagecuck? It wouldn't need money to survive.

the thing has infrared to see if the burger is cooked or not. When i was a cook back in my teenage years, i could never get meat cooked properly during rush hour.
That alone puts it over a regular wagie who doesnt give a fuck about whether the meat is cooked properly or not. This thing will pay for it self in 8 months (65,000 dollars). Gets smarter with each iteration and real time data.
This will replace burger flipping in 2 years, if i was a wagie and i saw this i would fucking seething.

>cost $100,000 (not including maintenance/electricity)
Anyone who's worked as a fry cook knows that thing will be covered in grease in 2 days. I doubt it'll go a year without some catastrophic failure and have to be replaced. Meanwhile for the same price you could hire a cook for 5 years.

>thing will pay for itself in 8 months (65k)
Where were you working that a fry cook gets paid $97,000 a year?
Also it cost $100,000 and can't do special orders and working as a fry cook you know that thing will be covered in grease in 2 days. Most likely will break has to be replaced in a year.

If you break it down per day with 12 hour run times it will pay for itself in a year @ $15 an hour. It will never take sick leave, nor have to be paid benefits. It won't show up late or take bathroom breaks. It will break down occasionally, but after a year it is working for free outside of some maintenance from time to time. The expediter can assemble the sandwich if need be.

I'm not saying all the companies have done this, but don't you think at least some of the people who design burger flipping robots take into account, you know, burger grease?

>>13030843
A rule of thumb is that employee salary is only about half of total employee cost.

Also the factors >>13030905 mentioned.

fry cook for one shift, gets paid 35,000 /year.
This thing can go 24/7. maybe i was being optimistic on the payoff periods. The actual management can get those details down to an art in the first few months. The grease can be cleaned every other day. Maybe even have a back up cook, who does other things when the robot is working. Now instead having 3 dudes doing a shift a week. You have two grills with two robots and a backup human. Franchises can min max the implementation, without a fucking hitch.

Why are people scared of automation? Its one less shit job someone has to do? The burger flipper can just go be a box lifter or store greater. And his and everyone's burgers will be cheaper. More automation = less shit people have to do = higher quality of life for everyone. There is always shit to do we will never run out, the things will do will just get more satisfying, more creative, more interesting than the mundane crap that is easily automated.

Come on, it's for the show.
If you want to do it the industrial way, you don't use a 6axis robot to flip burgers.
Except if humabs have to work on the grill too.

It just brings us closer to socialism.
