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.
