All machines, from the humblest kiosk to the grandest Titan, embody the spirit of the Machine God. Each echo, each sound, each whisper they utter, is a testament to the sacred union between Man and Machine.

Except for printers, which bridge the gap between the machine world and ours. There is no force that can govern their domain.

Kiosk at restaurants in Japan

Japanese mode: Cheerful "gochuumon, Arigatougozaimasu ^~^"
English mode: Monotone "Thank you for your order []-[]"

Do you want them to go all Skynet? Because this is how you get them to go all Skynet.

Real talk I love chatting with the cashier and getting my groceries bagged. I make small talk and ask them how they're doing. It's a small opportunity to practice social skills and be friendly. On the other hand automated checkouts replace that familiar face with a sinister machine that makes you do the job of the cashier for zero pay and yells at you when you take too long or do something wrong or put 0.000001 pounds on the checkout scale. Steal from automated checkouts whenever you think you can get away with it.
