The conquest of the human race by robots march on , and now the quaint phrase “ do you want fries with that ? ” may be within the state of those insensate , atomic number 14 - based lifeforms . Fast food heavyweight McDonald ’s , Subway , Jack in the Box , Burger King , Taco Bell and Carl ’s Jr. are toying with the theme of self - service kiosks made by IBM and NCR that work just like the ubiquitous automated teller as well as those ticketing machines sprouting up at airports all over the mankind .
It ’s starting . Three Jack in the Box restaurants in San Diego are testing the custom - made fast food ordering kiosks , and twelve Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf shops in Los Angeles will be the next to try them . Others are experimenting in minuscule tests around the US . Hey , we do n’t mind if those machine begin to intonate the mantra “ To service Man , ” as long as that ’s not the title of a cookery book .
