China's robot revolution has foreign firms on edge

Which begs the question. How many bots does it take to cook a meal ?

Thanks for saving my time. Initially I didn't even want to reply as Too obvious!

2. How much time does it take to set up a robot for cleaning plus inspecting to ensure no dirt attached a bundle of fresh vegetable, with minimum waste of ingredient. And the kind of vegetables could be different kind, size, shape and type every day that requiring new set up of robot(s).

3. How much space for a kitchen is required for so many different robots while some are fixed, many could be moving around?

4. How about the skills and sophistication required for robots to do crafts like these:

Ep1y-3NFhvkD3oW6ZNGth9_1NEXS_vaziZvSC9vsMq6WqNatKqyM56tjhxW1_KlOsUE=h310


5. How much capital investment for deploying so many robots? While some of them would be idle by doing nothing? Besides, economical or not? Other than feasible and affordable!

6. How are we going to dispose outdated robots if we don't need some of them due to whatever reasons? Shall we simply just say, "You're fired?" then the robot would disappear? The old robots could be custom made and nobody would want them. New robots will be much smaller size and cheaper. Disposing robots could be very very expensive in the future. That require manual labour for removing especially the fixed ones, perhaps with screws. Ensuring removing the unused robot without damaging the next existing ones still being used daily .

7. Prepare a almost live freshly caught fish and shellfish from professional fisherman's daily trip early morning today?

11B. Who are going to clean up all the robots individually to keep them clean and dry for they might not been used for another week. Hygiene and food safety! They might drop some dirt and pieces on floor or table or both!

12. Perhaps one sink per robot? How many sinks would be required? Installation costs and space for sinks? ...

Also man can be multi tasks concurrently such as preparing other ingredients while still cooking several foods with a cook-top like this one: Without worrying too much getting fire by accident.

Using robot could be problematic. That is one single robot could not easily handle without large investment and set-up time.
 
Check out Amazon automation:

There are some fundamental questions we need to think about.

1. Net saving on labour and/or cost during the robot's life-cycle.

2. Whether the process would accelerate/generate much more consumption, with much faster life-cycle. Say I might but more books/clothes more frequently and change to another new book/cloth sooner. Especially something completely new and inventive that robots cannot produce in the future. Like movies or sports. Going to skiing trips or opera concerts from 3 times a year to 10 times.

3. Who would have money to buy things after every job is lost to robots?

Actually there are already machines that wash these vegetables. All those salad that you see in the supermarket that says "Ready to Eat" were all washed by machines.

Not many chefs would use them, Yet.

One celebrity chef uses his own garden's vegetables. People have to book about 5 months ago. Or something like 3 years.

The tiny frog spent several days in the fridge inside the salad.
