The robots are there more for the theatre than efficiency. If you wanted high performance, you'd build a special purpose machine to do this.

Dominoes has an auto cheese distributor. It's an inverted cone with holes down the sides, cheese is dropped on top and then distributes evenly on the pizza. Pepperoni would be easy to manage too, but it's the odd shaped ingredients that'd be a challenge.

The idea with these inventions is to invest once in development, and then implement it at thousands of locations. That's basically how most automation is done. For example, ultra-fast sorting machines for vegetables and fruit. Development and testing costs millions, but then it's a finished machine that you can buy and earn money with basically immediately.

I can foresee somewhere in the late 2020s or early 2030s there will be fast food chains using this in places where the demand is high and a 24/7 service is profitable incorporating a kind of drive thru element to all this. It won't be uncommon to have a kind of service on demand Amazon type business model, whereby drones may even deliver pizzas made by machine and at a fraction of the cost. It will be disruptive as most technologies are at first.

How is the idea of optimising the process, taking the most dull and boring parts of one's job with you being paid to practically watch the robot do its job (robots still need human supervisors) terrible? And another guy to sit there and repair the robot if it breaks down. And no, they won't eliminate jobs. They will replace them with other jobs. So instead of needing chefs, you will need maintenence people and supervisors. And, with robots doing the most work, it'll be easier for employees to transition from one industry to another, as you need to study less if the robot does the most work. You just need to know what to do if the robot doesn't work. And a maintenence person just needs to learn the robots used in a particular industry and boom, he can transfer to another industry easily. It streamlines the education to focus on the necessary aspects. Leave the robot to do the bulk of the task, you just sit there and watch it and intervene in case it needs help. Easiest job you can ask for. And people still think it is a bad idea.
