I agree with everything you said. The only thing I really need automated is paying the bill at the end. Sometimes I just like to eat, pay, and run (Lunch break, class in a little bit, etc.) I went to a restaurant that was attempting some automation, but not a lot. I thought the balance was pretty nice. You get that iPad thing on the table. It has some games, and some other smaller features (digital menu, food recommendations, etc). The only thing that was automated was drink refill, pinging the waiter, and paying the bill at the end. It came in a lot of handy because we still had a waiter who took our order, but it took all the little annoyances out of the way.
