Wendy's will start implementing self-ordering Kiosk's at a 1,000 locations this year. Most locations would get 3 kiosks, which would cost $15,000 to set up and would quickly pay for themselves as less employee hours would be needed. They plan on still having the option of ordering with a human while customers acclimatize to it.
Wendy's doesn't have immediate plans, but they are looking at robots that can make a hamburger as well - and make it quicker, sanitary, and perhaps even cheaper now than a human can.

Pretty soon, robot will be able to replace vegetables and fruit pickers too.
I have not visiting these fast food chains for umpteen years. I don't know how they can survive.
Anther case of Lib wisdom that has negatively affect food workers! So much for 15$ a hour!
Democrats just want people to make a decent wage they can live on. But the reality is, automation is taking over human's jobs. We have self serve gas stations, self serve checkouts at grocery and drugstores. It used to be you could get a human on the phone when calling your insurance company, doctor or anyone else. Now we have to go through phone commands. How many of us have screamed and cursed at these robots who say "I'm sorry, I didn't understand you". I'm an easy going person but I can only take so much lol We are slowly being pushed out of jobs.

15,000 /52(weeks in a year)/40 = 7.20 an hour.
So failed argument unless you are arguing that the minimum wage should be dropped lower.
