At one McDonald’s location in Texas, robots are now serving up Big Macs.⁠ ⁠ Amid a growing desire for fast food giants to automate their processes, the first mostly robot-run McDonald’s restaurant is currently being tested in Fort Worth, Texas.⁠ ⁠ At this location, there are no human cashiers in sight. Even the restaurant itself is smaller and has no seating, designed to serve the grab-and-go crowd, rather than sit-down diners.⁠ ⁠ Upon entry, digital tills take customer orders and robots push food through on conveyor belts in designated pick-up areas.⁠ ⁠ Customers can order through the drive-thru, the company’s mobile app or the touch screen kiosks in-store.⁠ ⁠ A TikTok video showing the new automated location is already on the way to virality. As of this writing, the video has been viewed 1.3 million times.⁠ ⁠ A McDonald’s spokesperson told The Guardian that though the new store is highly technical, it “is not fully automated.” There are still human workers employed in the restaurant, though interaction between customers and human employees is very limited.⁠ ⁠ McDonald’s said the goal of the test location is to serve customers with improved speed and accuracy.⁠ ⁠ Click the link in the @GlobalNews bio to read more.⁠ ⁠ Image: Getty⁠
