MGM Resorts Will Replace Bartenders With Robots

The site says the company has been quietly testing the setup at their East coast properties with the plan to expand to Las Vegas, a move that could save millions on labor costs. Union leaders have been keeping the issue of automation front and center in their recent contract negotiations, almost leading a strike last June.
