Interesting that they are going the subscription route and not selling these outright. It works because the comparison with the cost of a human looks so favorable. I’d expect to see this with humanoid robots too as they take over more and more human jobs.
XRobotics’ countertop robots are cooking up 25,000 pizzas a month
Here’s it in action. The dough base is pre-made.

It looks believable to me that this might be far faster than a human.
im not doubting the machine is fast. its just not really realistic to compare it to something much slower than it actually is. this video while exagerated because theyre aiming for speed intentionally, goes over a short process on how dominos would make a pepperoni pizza. the process on how they add cheese and pepperoni doesnt take that long.
i think the machine would be far better suited for personal pizza and ingredient normalization where there may be a ton of toppings, or like a papa murphies. but if all you want is a pepperoni pizza, time duration in fast food establishments is not that high to make one.
It also assumes the pepperoni step is the bottleneck and zero downtime between orders. But who cares the main thing is they get to cut a few hundred mil from a vc check. Even if the thing thanks they still never have to work again.
Two takeaways here, 1) we are rubes and 2) they want to replace us all with robots. They want to starve us, and starve our children
