Japanese people tend to make a big deal out of the "human touch," especially when it comes to service

Aren't they the ones that first came up with robot servers in restaurants? Or maybe that was South Korea?

    It might actually be China. All the robots I see here are the one with the cat face and I'm pretty sure that's where they come from. We don have remote control robot cafes where people with physical/mental disabilities to serve you using avatar bots which is cool!

    Japan also did that, but it mostly just for the uniqueness of the robot, not for replacing workforce.
