RE: Future Tech: Coffee Bot Coming to a Starbucks Near You Soon!

in #robot6 years ago

Let’s start with the “bot barista” design. Whose idea was it to go with the most aesthetically displeasing and cumbersome design in the history of robotics?

Imagine if this thing was adopted by your local trendy/edgy coffee shop. What was once a bustling metropolis of hipsters, poets and socially conscious fashion influencers would instantly become a distant memory and quickly replaced with corporate entities ready to ogle at the new “innovation”.

And the iPad with some gif eyes to, you know, give it that “human touch” is just the winning centrepiece. Man, can we just keep the baristas where they belong for now please skynet? You’ll have your chance for world domination but just let us enjoy our coffee first.

Good thoughts here! Humans are always going to make a better cup of joe!

Ok, you've got a great point here! It does look completely silly and I don't know who in their right mind would prefer this over a cute girl serving you your coffee. I'd like to enjoy my coffee as well and the human barrista experience I do believe is an important part of that!
