That's true, but only with the way the process is set up now.
The quality might be worse, there might be much less choice, the ingredients might be designed for the robot's process rather than taste, but there will probably be a market that'll be willing to trade quality for price.
And then the robots continue to get better, until they can handle more objects, more variations, and create better pizza.
And it'll probably never equal the quality that comes out of a pizza oven, but tbh people don't go to Dominoes for quality pizza anyway -- it'll be 'good enough'.
The pizza masters will probably get jobs at more expensive pizza places that charge a premium for a human having made it.
And eventually, the robots will probably be able to make better pizza than humans are capable of.
Especially because a lot of the quality of the pizza is the ingredients. For a set price point, a reduction in labour costs means more can be spent on ingredients.
