Chipotle has won the hearts of many of us. This is because they have provided us with truly delicious Mexican food that we don't have to wait to enjoy. However, what they have done now is so unbelievable, it may change everything!
Chipotle Is Now Making It Even Easier For Us To Enjoy Burritos By:
Drone Delivery.
Alphabet and Chipotle joined forces with Virginia Tech because while it is one of the few drone testing sites approved by the Federal Aviation Administration, the university also boasts a “very aggressive program for next generation transportation and infrastructure,” Alan Levin reported for Bloomberg News.
School President Timothy Sands also commented on the project, saying it was part of Virginia Tech’s efforts to become a leader in new transportation technology. Dave Vos, a Project Wing executive, said the partnership is “the first time that we’re actually out there delivering stuff to people who want that stuff.”
The services of which are only available to a certain group of Virginia Tech employees and students—will only last a couple of weeks, the headlines forecast a not-so-distant future where it will literally rain burritos.
One thing is indeed inarguable: this project is the first of its kind. A food-delivery drone’s groundbreaking technology could—and likely will—jumpstart the next drastic shift in consumerism.
I wonder why the focus of drone technology is being placed on the wants of consumers when 1 in 8 Virginians and 1 in 6 Americans go hungry every year. Drone-delivered food is all fine, dandy, and cool to watch, but its services should be geared towards the needs of hungry people, whose hopeful vision of the future is having the means to give their children fresh produce or clean water.
The drones are being used for the sake of convenience when we could be using them for the sake of solving hunger.
Finished!
