There’s not actually a need to physically flip burgers at McD. They use a clamshell grill that cooks both sides at once.

Besides, the fry robot has a better ROI given the profit margin on that item.

Makes sense. Stuff like the clamshell device is a more practical innovation than a clunky and slow anthropomorphic robot arm flipping a burger.

We don’t fly aircraft like ornithopters, but with ducted fans and propellers.
