The CEO of Taco Bell's parent company said Tuesday that machines could replace human workers in 10 years.

"I don't think it is going to happen next year or the year after, but I do believe that probably by the mid '20s to the late '20s, you'll start to see a dramatic change in sort of how machines run the world," Greg Creed, CEO of Yum Brands, told CNBC.

Yum owns a handful of fast-food companies including KFC, Taco Bell, and Pizza Hut.

The fast-food industry is already using technology to supplement or replace human workers through the use of tablets and smartphone apps that allow customers to order their food without interacting with any employees.

But robots and "smart" computers aren't just threatening the jobs of fast-food workers.

They could replace up to half the US workforce within the next decade or two, according to an Oxford University study from 2013.

The study identified more than 700 occupations at risk of computer automation.

Here are the jobs that are most at risk, based on the study.

Yup, and then when humans are redundant, do you think the ruling elite are going to let them just hang around. They won't have any use for people anymore. Off to the extermination camps we go.

I think we should work harder to replace all the lawyers.

Why? Even if you came up with a way to do it, we'd just get an injunction.

You're wasting your time.

ar-15s might do it

injunction proof

I went to a McDonalds and attempted to use a computer to order. No luck. I couldn't quite get what I wanted. After a few minutes I left. There are still people cooking in the back. Apparently, they bring your order to your table, but I was after something quick to go. No loss. I've never been a McDonalds fan, and won't be going back.

AR15s are always injunction proof.

So we need to replace the judges first. Try to get an injunction then!

I did try to warn you. Go for it.

They're going to get you Cliffy!

 

[Bar Sinister]

Never underestimate the human factor. I really can't see a robot replacing your friendly neighbourhood barkeep and robots lack the personality for face to face face interaction.

 

[Ludlow]

They're going to get you Cliffy!

I imagine most robots will be conservatives and say the same shyt over and over again.

I tried to get me a strawberry milk shake at the QT awhile back and the girl said I had to use this damn touch screen thing. I asked the girl, you mean you can't just sell me a shake? I just left and went to Jack in the Box.

I think Khemo Savvy there accused you of cruisin the meat rack. LOL. .

 

[Danbones]

gawd damned if he can get the plastic off the hamburg without a bayonet
and a helper

and a gun

lawyers will be the first thing the robots eat

"That's right folks, robots that consume organic matter to power themselves. Scared yet? You should be. Your pants should be full right now. If not, more fiber.
This particular model is a flytrap that digests insects to power a cock."
Finally, robots that digest meat -- because that's what I want in the house. So let me get this straight: you're a robot AND YOU EAT MEAT. Welcome home!
