Bullish or bearish?

It's cool. Will still need a human for the 10% of orders that fail.

yeah, like 10% of the required manpower as before. retard, we need less people to do the same thing; corporations have no reason to scale labor costs it's a stupid fucking cope especially on hackernews.

no dude, tech has only laid off this year, it will never get better. you should've done nursing.

Bearish.

>>62329584
Actually if it can only handle 90% of orders, then 100% of OG manpower is required... maybe more than 100% if tech support is required on call for maintenance. Most places usually have a single drive through attendant in the first place, with multiple lanes converging to a single payment and pickup window where they have a human physically handing customers food and giving them an opportunity to check the bag, ask for condiments, adjust the order, etc.

This would really only scale as suggested if drive throughs weren't inherently a funnel system and the attendants weren't already making bottom tier wages.

Indoor kiosk and app ordering already scale better than this with lower risk.

ai sucks but we need bullish news
>>
Every time I go to McDonald's it's always some brown people working there and they always fuck up my order.

They simply cannot input verbal orders which is why I started using the app. AI and voice recognition is good these days so it can even remove orders too.

Absolutely bullish. Also what should I invest in I'm already in the s&p 500.

>>62329551
10% error rate is fucking crazy
>>
>>62329559
Nope they’ll just make you get out of line and tell you to order better next time so that the robot can understand it. They’re not going to keep fleshslaves around for the few retards who can’t into AI.
>>
>>62329584
>instead of ten people working the drive through they’ll just have one
They only have one, how do they replace him with a tenth of one?
>>
>>62329559
Its 90% logically complete orders, hallucinations can still count as completed orders. Also Mcfibbers needs the equivalent of a tech cabinet or rack at each location to make it work with very little delay or do some fancy new network tech that will light stores on fire do to the constant bandwidth push/pull. With the vats of fryer oil this is a safety risk.
>>
>>62330264
The fact it isn't needed to be a full time position means the guy on the frier can keep doing his thing with the headset on and just shift over when assistance is needed. If there's any reinforcement learning on this the 90% will likely improve as well. You're not replacing 10 jobs with 1 you're replacing the 1 job with an additional duty on someone else already there.

granted, i dont use any apps and im not a phonr guy, full disclosure. but every time i go to the mcdonalds drive thru, the first question they ask is: "hello, would you like to use the mobile app today?" I always say no thanks, but in my mind im thinking, why the hell would i use the mobile app when im literally at the drive thru placing my order with you right now, in real time? makes no sense to me.
>>
They're replacing the wrong jobs. They'll discover that the customer facing jobs are the ones they want to keep because humans are social animals who instinctively derive some kind of satisfaction or dopamine release from the act of being served. The guy in the back flipping burgers is the one you want to replace now you have a staff of 3, one serving at the counter, one at the drive through, and one guy doing tech support. the manager will be ai.
>>
>>62330587
McDonald's probably makes them say that, or it is a pre-recorded message. They want you to use the app so they can phase out more workers.

The Taco Bell I go to has A similar message that plays when you pull up. When I say no then the attendant inside starts talking to me in a totally different voice than the message when I first pulled up.

I used to go to a Wendy's because there was a sexy teen goth girl who wore a collar that worked the drive through window. I would pay in cash so our hands would touch when she gave me change. I stopped going there when she stopped working there.

>>62330625
if they had hot goth girls/ clown girls/ alternative/ etc at every wendys as a matter of policy they would get an immediate 40% bump in sales

Only morons use drive-thru. I used to park, go in, order and was out of there in 5-10 minutes. Unfortunately for them I now refuse to eat jeet prepared food and haven't been in years.

>>
>>62329600

>>
>>62330635
Going inside is always faster if there is a line in the drive-thru. I often take note of what car I would have been behind if I would have used the drive-thru instead of parking. I am usually leaving with my food when the place I would have been in line in the drive-thru is only half way through.
>>
>>62330647
Did you hear about the glitch at McDonald's where at the kiosk and using the app you could subtract ingredients from a cheeseburger for a discount, but the discounts added up to $0.10 more than the burger if you subtracted everything except pickles ketchup and mustard? So people would order 50X buns with pickle, ketchup, and mustard and get a $5.00 credit. Them they would order $5.00 of food and the total was $0.00. it lasted a few days and went viral a few years ago.

Eventually mcdonalds wont need people beyond building the store and occaisional maintenance. Trucks will just drop off slop containers. One with "beef" that just shits out extruded patties, one with pink slime for nuggets, etc... Your neuralink will send your brain a signal that youre hungry for mcdonalds and place your order with no effort on your part.

no doubt they're just talking about where you place the order. On the inside you just order at a kiosk, the workers only make food at this point, which makes their job 100% better not having to deal with customers.

The retarded thing is interfacing with an AI chatbot to make the order. The smart thing is going to be doing all orders through apps or a touchscreen kiosk.

I read some random comment the other day (I don't remember where or what was the context) regarding stuff like this, which fits this topic:

companies don't understand that automation like this still carries a lot of work and responsibility in the form of maintenance of systems. for some reason everyone seems to assume that you just install these machines and have some IT guy do maintenance once a year and that's all. in reality, shit is harder than that.

also, the irony here is that these retards could give customers a touch screen for them to order shit but insist on using unreliable """AI""" lmao
>>
>>62329551
if this saves me from having to repeat my order 3 fucking times to the foreign accent cunt I can barely understand only for them to still get my order wrong, then so be it

>>62329551
There's no reason for an AI model. Their self-service touchscreen things can take orders already. Only needs to send the orders to the employee's dos or emacs terminal thingy.

The issue is that upper execs are insulated from ever having worked in the messy real world.

>>62333731
I live and have lived through all of that. you know what's even funnier? that even when you tell them to do shit the right way, they still fuck things up. they exhude lack of life/work experience.
I would never even dare be in that position, though. I don't give a shit about the interests of a big corporation, and I don't like having to deal with retards. I'd rather do my (technical) job and go home at 6pm. even better if I do it remotely.
