I for one welcome our robot sushi chef overlords!
No fugu!!
Needs a loony-toon conveyor belt right into my mouth.

Lunch is sooo far away.

Who else is disappointed it was not an anthropomorphic robot. Possible with a weird uncanny valley face.
Results pretty much what you’d expect: better than poorly-made human sushi, tasty enough but not like a careful person makes. Makes really bad sushi fast, if the cook doesn’t know what they’re doing: mushy, bad flavor, etc.
There was an update on that just recently.
Yum. This makes me miss The X-Files…
Soundtrack for that clip:
Wow, cool to see the live performance. This gives the nostalgia a good shake.
I realize that not only am I demonstrating that I am an Old with this complaint, but I am also screaming into a void that could not care less, but…
Is it really too much to ask to have a simple linear narrative video to show the whole process, which also doesn’t constantly jump cut away from each image before I can even get my eyes to focus.
Fer fuck’s sake!
No. I thought the same thing – like is our attention span so short these days the cuts can’t be more than 500ms apart?
That works too.
But I’m fairly certain the music is something by Steve Reich
Well damn. I’ve been replaced. My sushi making days are over!
we are all
In some way or
Another going to
Reseda someday
Does RoboJiro Dream of Electric Sheep?
2400 nigiri balls/hour? I don’t think I can eat them that fast…but I’ll try.
If there’s a robot that makes Dim Sum I’ll go head to head with you. Just for giggles.
