  • I have very limited experience in LARGE corporations. But it seems to me those are all “putting out fires” positions requiring some level of rapport with key individuals and usually privileged knowledge.

    Not saying it justifies the exorbitant salaries they get. Just explaining why in a “shareholder profits first” system we’re not seeing AI’s running corporations.

    Especially given the results of AI run vending machines / stores.
















  • I doubt they will before full automated kiosks become a thing. Even then I could actually see them keeping a human order taker / maintenance person there and having the food made by robots.

    But the main issue is that customers would take too long without someone prompting them. When I worked drive thru I said a lot of “hurry along” things. Like when people named a sandwich I’d interject “Combo?” and “Coke with that?” as well as “Is that everything”. Even please drive ahead.
