We originally thought that robotic arms would be used for surgery but instead they'll be used to put tater tots in the microwave for 3$ a day so we don't have to pay service workers.

Closer and closer to a cyberpunk future every day lol.

They are used for surgery. The fact that the cost of the technology is decreasing towards the point it can be economically used for tot preparation is a feature, not a bug.

…unless you are the one making tots today and you really love the work.

it's not just the wage worker they wont be paying, it's also the taxes and the costs of compliance and hr for large scale orgs.
