The Robot Barista could doom human baristas

Watch a robot make the perfect cappuccino in 3 minutes.

Starbucks employees disliking the video

[randomuser]

that's cool but i can't flirt with a robot & get an extra shot of espresso my latte...

[DieterRust]

Will it write our names correctly on the cup though?

[SpeedyGolfCart]

theres gonna be a lot of people with man buns unemployed now

[Nainglin]

Hipsters in the future will only buy coffee from humans, so primitive

[rubens]

Q: who is going to bring the milk from the refrigerator and fill the cup for the Robot? the robot forgot to clean the steam pipe!!!

[andyeccentric]

I love how they have to speed up the video so you don't die of boredom watching the fuckin thing

4 Words .. Fully Automatic Espresso Machine, and it's much cheaper

[meercreate]

These universal robotic arms are a bit slow, but this is kind of a neat novelty watching these two go.
There are faster automated robo-baristas where the only action performed by the customer is loading their cup and making selections on screen, like a freestyle soda machine, but for espresso based drinks like cappuccino, macchiato, fraps, etc. for those looking for speed and elegance.

[CyberlightFG]

Get a pressure profiling machine with magnetic solenoids so the robot doesn't need to press a button. Get rid of the obsolete second robot. This is much too slow.
Don't be shy to slam the filter in the machine.

What happens if when, computer says "no"?

[danielskiba]

I cant wait for ai to take all these jobs

hahahahahaha, this video is so hilarious, still laughing as it uses signature barista moves . hahahahahah. funny. Also, plz correct "perfect cappuccino", it actually made a latte. :)

[onlythistube]

True... still slow and expensive... But so were the first room-filling computers... Give it 1-2 generations and by then we better came up with "working" alternatives for the service sector...

3 min for 1 cup. Are you crazy?? Its toooo slooowly

[Ammoh]

Lol, Robo is missing beverage routine.

[chefsloth]

I'll prefer human barista, because soem baristas are very passionate with what they do.

[christianchellis]

That dosen’t go as fast as people though.

[mightymike]

Why is there so much excessive hype about this robot? Automated coffee machines have been on the streets for several years now.

Insert the paper notes, press one of the 20+ buttons, and get your coffee (and it tastes rather delicious, by the way).

Anytime, anyday.

[effortist]

It is already a fail, you don't need mechanical arms to make a coffee like a human would, there are dedicated machines that will do a faster and better job, like the one sitting on your kitchen counter.
