‘Even robots don’t have job security’: Watch how a robot waiter asks customer to step aside in US restaurant

Like most workplaces, the restaurant industry is also adopting automation. Now different types of robots are being used to greet customers and serve dishes. One such robot, named Peanut, is ‘employed’ at U&Me Hot Pot, a Chinese restaurant in Orlando, US.

A video of Peanut is going viral on Instagram. The video shows Peanut asking a customer to move out of his way. In its high-pitched and childlike voice, the robot says, “Don’t block my way. I have to work, otherwise I’ll be fired”.

The robot arrives in front of the door and the guest types a pincode and then the robot reveals the packed food. After the guest takes the food item, the robot closes and moves back.
