Right now it seems like its "A.I.". Still big now are the wars in the Middle East and Ukraine. Recently we had COVID 19.

Oh, an arm on a cooker and prep area isn't quite what I thought you were talking about. A human employee would still have to be around to feed it ingredients, clean it, and deliver the food, then, so that's more like an increment on top of the slicing machines and automatic ovens fast food joints already have.

They'll probably call it something more impressive sounding and oversell it but it will be kinda revolutionary.

When the trend of robots cooking from raw starts taking over the prepackaged and oven ready meals we'll see real competition and innovation

Yep! Sorry, didn't mean to diminish it. That's still a good answer to "the next big thing".
