Automation is posed as a labor shortage solution, but workers say robots are making their jobs — and food — worse.
  • Robot chefs are replacing humans at some South Korean highway restaurants.
  • Tech companies say robots can help solve labor shortage in an aging nation.
  • Workers say their roles have been downgraded from chefs to cleaning staff.

    Well yes. But if you have for example 20 plates you just quickly rinse them all in a row and put them in the dishwasher. Along with all the other cups and glasses and whatever pots and cutlery you used. Saves a lot of time.

    Yes if you have 2 plates and nothing else I agree it’s easier to just hand wash them.

      Agree to disagree? I have a dishwasher and hate it for daily cleaning, but it does a good job for burned greasy pots or stuff dirty from dough. If it saves your time for daily work, good for you.
