Fast food restaurants in Cali always use the excuse of employee wages to justify how expensive the food's gotten. This restaurant is staffed with literal robots and costs about the same as Five Guys.
Fast restaurants usually don’t make those excuses but rather small businesses, fast food restaurants are a lot more stable in pricing with most fluctuations coming from taxes which varies a lot more

@@InvasionAnimation You might not be kissing boots but the whole “big companies will do what big companies do” is dumb because attitudes like that is why they get away with it. Hold them to a standard instead of mocking people for pointing it out
@@TCGexclusive How exactly did you think I was on the side of the company from what I said? People should get to keep their jobs, although I personally would prefer that the food service industry automated for personal reasons. Still not okay with it being automated for ethical reasons.
Even if robots somehow made things cheaper, does anyone really think companies will pass those savings on to customers? Companies try to find ways to make things cheaper to increase profits, not lower prices.
@@tupakkaonhyvaa The problem is if EVERYTHING is more expensive people have no choice but to pay the prices. "Speak with your wallet" only works if there's another option.
@@tupakkaonhyvaa People buy fast food for convenience. If fast food keeps increasing in price people might buy LESS of it, but the reason it exists is still there and people will still buy it. Now of course there's a price point that almost no one would be able to justify, but we're obviously not there and these companies won't charge more than people are willing to pay. Also, rising food prices are affecting grocery stores as well. Making your own food has always been cheaper and probably always will, but I imagine the price ratio between making your own food and buying it from a fast food place is probably pretty close to what it's always been because EVERYTHING is more expensive across the board.
@@vinyfiny Yeah, well I stopped going to mcdonalds for good at least. Few years ago a cheeseburger was 1€ exactly and a big mac meal like 5-6€. Now a cheese burger is 2,60€ and a big mac meal is 12,50€. Nothing in this world can be a good excuse for this kind of price gouging. People should just going to these places to put an end to this nonsense.
I support robots more than lazy service workers. It's rare I get halfway decent service at a fast food place. Depending on the area and demographics some places will not even interact with, or greet you, they just hand you the food and when you point out you they didn't give you any sauce or etc they mope and go give you like 1 or 2 packets. For example a decent sized taco bell order you need some sauce packets, not 2 or 3. Robots ftw
I worked in fast food and I’d much rather a robot do it. Most of my coworkers were such lazy losers. Saying not to use AI or robots is like saying not to use a computer because it hurts libraries or not to use a car because the people who take care of horses would be hurt.
People will literally always choose the human prepared version because they want that “lottery ticket” moment when they receive literally $0.06 extra of ingredients due to human error.
Haven't even pressed the play button and I know somehow they'll charge more even though it doesn't even require someone to actually make it (got to offset the R&D/the machine)
Peeps complain that the price has come down bit think about the cost of the robots and to install them.. thinking it not cheap.. the prices may come down
15 dollar for a burger and fries done by robots seems unjustified. They should make a ranch company instead since the ranch is the only thing that bumps it up a notch.
y’all acting like it doesn’t cost anything for these robots, these robots are obviously really expensive as well, and even though you don’t have to pay them wages like you would a real employee, the initial investment for these machines is easily thousands of dollars
Sorry to tell you, but almost all fast food spots are robotic in some way, and have similar mechanics to assist with the grilling and placing fries in their baskets..Employees simply remove items and place them in warming trays… and build burgers..
As people we should not be supporting this kind of shit. The more we allow common jobs like this to be taken over by machines, the more we’re gonna see jobs we never imagined being taken over by robots. Support real people

Sin is essentially disobedience from God. God created order in this world, and when He created Humans, He gave us free will (since He is Good + knows that we should willingly follow Him out of our own decision- without force) ! We disobeyed/strayed from His loving way of life, and we all have this problem of sin. Our sin has a punishment though. Because God is Good, He is Just. Because God is Just, He- a Judge- cannot let us - a Guilty Criminal that has Disobeyed the Law- set free legally due to our problem of sin. Therefore, we must be sent to hell- endless punishment and torment- (like how A criminal goes to jail) for our sin. Now… the thing is, hell is a scary place and I definitely do not want to go there. (It isn’t a party down there- If a Judge sent a criminal to jail and if jail is a party, then would the criminal really be paying the price for their crime? NO. It’s the same with Hell!) HERE IS THE GOOD NEWS (THE GOSPEL) GOD SENT HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, JESUS TO DIE ON THE CROSS FOR OUR SIN, ESSENTIALLY SERVING AS BAIL BY TAKING OUR PLACE/PUNISHMENT OF SIN ON THE CROSS UPON HIMSELF. (HE COULD ONLY DO THIS BECAUSE HE LIVED A PERFECT LIFE WITHOUT SIN) SO BECAUSE OF HIS SACRIFICE, WE CAN BE SAVED FROM HAVING TO GO TO HELL, AND INSTEAD GO TO HEAVEN IF WE JUST BELIEVE WHAT HE DID FOR US(THE GOSPEL) -die for our sins- AND HAVE A RELATIONSHIP AND REPENT(which means turn away from Sin). Now, like a criminal Can be bailed out from jail legally, JESUS BAILS US OUT OF HELL SO WE CAN GO TO HEAVEN AND SPEND ETERNITY WITH HIM! :) JESUS LOVES YOU, HE’S CALLING YOU ALL HOME!
There is a little thing called supply and demand. If people keep buying overpriced burgers, of course they will not reduce prices, they are not stupid.
$15 for a burger and fries is completely inconsistent with the notion that human labor is what's causing $15 for a burger and fries. Edit: The comments below are what happens when people know a little bit about something but not the implications, details and practices of how things are actually handled in the real world. It's sometimes characterized as "knowing just enough to be dangerous".
Well the theoretical lower prices we could have by using robots instead of humans would only be once the tech has been designed and tested for years and then rolled out en mass. It's still expensive bc it's just one place that probably has programmers and engineers on payroll to fix and update the machines. But yes in reality, I wouldn't be surprised if someone like McDonald's rolled this out, they'd keep prices the same despite the massive increase in their profit.
@@tobeywilson1327 It's still $15 for a burger and fries as a supposed solution to supposedly high labor costs causing $15 for a burger and fries in the first place. This is otherwise known as "not a solution".
@curtismatsune3147 respectfully you missed the point, during the beta phase where they're doing a lot of tweaking, update, and stream lining of the operation it's still going to be expensive. Not to mention it's only one place and not a chain. So they don't benefit from mass production. The potential lower costs only come into play once the initial design and testing costs have been overcome.
@@curtismatsune3147 You're completely ignoring the point. It's still in beta phase. At this point, it is just proof of concept to attract investors in the tech. It probably doesn't even turn a profit at $15.
@@tobeywilson1327 No, the one missing the point is you. If they're going to solve $15 for a burger and fries, the FIRST thing you do is sell a burger and fries for some amount meaningfully LESS than $15. If you can't or won't do that, you've solved NOTHING.
you all complaining about a 15 dollars burger while in my country (brazil) the minimum wage is about $1100 and a mcdonalds burger costs around $50 - $100, you americans dont realize how lucky you are, living inside your own bubble.
This is more about ingredients and prep than the robots. Those fries are top notch frozens. The cheese looks like cheddar cheese, not american. The meat looks real, not overly processed. And the bun looks quality along with the veg. So the cost is about right, even if it were all human.
If its not cheaper than why bother? All these dumb gimmick foods that arent actually being cheaper to circumvent the reason to be implemented in the first place.

Those fries don’t have a bad price when Popeyes charges $4 for small, which is half the size of that.

What makes you think that this isn't going to happen everywhere, including places with a $7 minimum wage?
Controversial I see
In N Out is charging more for their food due to the rising wages yet this robot doesn't have a wage and charges more? I call BS on In N Out.
