WATCH: Man Documents His Visit To McDonald’s First-Ever Automated Outlet In US
The "robotic" restaurant requires no human interaction to place or take orders. Right from choosing your order to packing it, the entire process is automated.
Our dependency on technology is growing day by day. We are now working to the extent of employing robots in real life to perform all the human-related work. Fast food giant McDonald's decided to experiment with the idea last year and opened their first-ever automated outlet in Texas’s Fort Worth.
The "robotic" restaurant requires no human interaction to place or take orders. Right from choosing your order to packing it, the entire process is automated. An internet user recently visited the restaurant and documented his experience which he shared on social media.
In the video shared on Instagram the user can be seen standing outside the newly opened McDonald's in Texas. After a few moments he enters the restaurant and begins to show the surroundings. There is no seating arrangement inside the restaurant as it is a 'grab and go' facility. In a while he places his order through a kiosk which is delivered by a robot. He also makes an order online and picks it up through the drive-thru.
The clip was shared on the Instagram handle @kaansanity with the caption "What do you guys think about this?"
Since being shared the video has amassed ore than 7 lakh views, over 16,000 likes and several comments.

"So no more fights in fast food restaurants, no more disrespecting the cashiers, no more mishandling of food, cool. Well idk abt that last part," wrote one user.
While another disliked the concept and wrote, "My vote is no. I like people better than machines."
"We as a people need to boycott this. Taking more jobs away from people who need them," wrote a third expressing his views on the concept.
