We were always taught that robots would exist to serve us and make our lives easier. That appears to be true in Russia, but it's not so in the US. Here, Artificial Intelligence and Robots are replacing our jobs, our livelihoods.

'AI' to create the wines.....and robots to serve them?

This is ANTI-HUMAN; an ANTI-HUMAN business!

I would HOPE that ALL HUMANS would NOT patronize ANY Anti-Human business!

Boycott them, and let them know WHY you are boycotting them!

This is the WRONG direction the HUMAN Race is moving in.

DawnieR, not all technology is bad. I'm very much aware of the danger of "technocracy" and have done many shows about it and transhumanism. AI, in and of itself, is not bad. But the bad use of AI and technology is a real concern.

But a ROBOT, for a BARTENDER?

I'd walk right out! lol

I'd spent most of my adult life hanging out in bars/(music) clubs.

Between 'my loves'......Heavy Metal/Hard Rock and Harley Davidson's......I'd be going to see/photograph bands and hanging out in 'biker bars' with my 'biker buds', and JUST as important as the people hanging out at those bars......were the BARTENDERS.

If I were to go into a non music (club/bands) bar or a non biker bar......a 'regular' bar, and if the bartender wasn't 'to my liking', I would never go back in to that bar.

I just cannot fathom that.....a BAR with NO Human bartender. LOL

That's actually a bad business move. Because, if you have a bar, and have awesome bartenders......that WILL keep people coming back to ones establishment.

DawnieR, it isn't a bar where people gather to drink, interact, and relax. It is a winemaking facility which is part of the 5 Star resort. Yes, it's a gimmick, and it doesn't replace human jobs. MYRIA hosts outstanding wine tasting events presented by the chief winemaker, assisted by humans who pour the various wines being tasted. I agree with you that IF robots replace people in bars and restaurants, people must resist. It isn't just because it replaces humans with robots, but it changes an important human interaction and cultural aspect of our lives. That's when AI and technology change our basic human nature.
