Tyson To Build Meat Processing Robots

What could possibly go wrong? Besides a billion and one things. From a business point, I can understand the appeal of robots. They only need maintenance. No need to have a payroll constantly going. No worries about being sued if there is an accident. 

The problem comes when the programing goes wrong and you have a billion chicken thighs and no breast or legs. Then what? You have to get a human to reprogram the robots which mean you have to pay someone to do this work. So why not just have humans do the work, to begin with.

Before convince food was everywhere. Oh, those were the days... Let's reclaim them and start cooking from scratch again.
