I’ll never forget my brother, and I working at McDonald’s when we conversed about the future of fast food in 1999. There we were at fifteen and sixteen years old at over our first job predicting the future of fast food. We talked about how people would walk up and type in their orders themselves, and then their food would pop out like fast food vending machine. We talked about how the machines would make the food and self clean. Of course, McDonald’s doesn’t have machine or robot chefs yet, but the Wendy’s in Upper Arlington has AI taking people’s orders.
