They do it at Tim Hortons Drive Throughs too already, not sure if overseas but definitely someone in a call center taking the order. I'm torn about it, why resist technology and progress. But yeah, I guess root cause is they can't find enough staff on site because they pay too low.

As much as people are going to fight it, UBI is pretty much the only way to maintain a somewhat functioning society when every low-wage job has disappeared. The people that were doing those jobs before haven't gone anywhere. And there will likely be even more of them. But now any opportunity for work that they had before is no longer available.
