Someone is going to make a shitload of money replacing restaurant workers ...
Hotel service workers may be an issue -- room rates might go up $10 /night (average).
Warehouse, retail and some service workers will take a big hit in the form of no jobs.
Police and prison costs will skyrocket though, with all the unemployed and lack of opportunity property crime will rise when they start a new occupation of crime. The laws will be changed to make it legal to shoot thieves in that act -- that is one option to lower unemployment in a $15 minimum wage world.
When machines (now AI robots) are advantageous over human employment costs the machines have always won.

Why could pizza assembly not be 100% automated?
