When all restaurants go to all robots for preparing and serving our meals......Will we have to tip any of them??

3. Tip will be included in the bill

You will be automatically charged for it.

4. When that comes to pass -

- I, along with many others I suspect, will simply not eat out. Just like I don't eat the product that companies like Stouffer's produce. It is simply not food anymore.

5. Imagine what they will do if you get a wrong order? I kind of think they will not be programmed for courtesy.

6. Maybe if current AI bot tech is used to take orders you'll see a tip added by the AI

You insist you just wanted coffee, and there was no tip. It counters that it understood that you wanted fries with that. When the video security camera bot confirms you didn't, it argues fries are customary, and you have to remind it you were talking about the tip it added. After stating that the Ferengi Rules of Acquisition clearly state it should never give your money back, you get frustrated and call the phone number for complaints printed on the coffee cup, and find yourself confronted by an AI-driven phone maze that eventually somehow transfers you to a car rental counter in Fargo, ND. But at least you're talking to an actual human being, and you can sympathize about how the restaurant's customer support AI keeps transferring calls there.
