Look, it got heated, but I very honestly do not understand what you think this conveyor belt delivery system is doing that couldn't have been done a decade, or more, ago. This is not singularity tech, it is basic assembly line automation that has been available for a very long time. Put item here, then it goes there is not new.

So instead of continually pointing out that they put things on a delivery mechanism and yelling at me how I am stupid for not seeing how that changes the world, explain to me how that is new tech instead of tech that has been available forever, but McDs decided to try out.

Edit: and, yes, a robot. Which is also not really new tech. Fun and cool, but Japan & China had similar silly butler robots a long while back, I think around 2015 or so.

Second edit, found a link: https://fortune.com/2015/07/06/robots-china/amp/

Where did I even say it was “singularity tech” lol. Still ignoring what I said too. Ignoring and putting words in my mouth. You just kept weird describing it as “a conveyor belt”. Fuck off. Fucking Reddit midwits honestly.

"Look at the video while I say nothing about why I think it is an important new tech" is not a fucking point that says anything.

I hope someday you learn how to communicate thoughts via writing, it's a useful skill.

And it's a singularity subreddit, so if the tech is not relevant to that why is it blowing your small atrophied mind?
