Japan's robot hotel lays off half the... robots. "Two velociraptor robots positioned at check-in were decommissioned because human workers essentially had to do their jobs for them and photocopy guests' passports manually.
"Two robot luggage carriers could only reach about 24 of the over 100 rooms in the hotel and failed in rain or snow. They would also often get stuck trying to pass by each other."
"The hotel's main concierge robot also didn't know how to answer questions about flight schedules and nearby tourist attractions. It has since been replaced by a human."
