Day 1 in Tokyo: robot hotel, robot ramen, robot everything

Written By Distill

After a couple of weeks of well-deserved downtime in Denver, we're flying 12 hours across the Pacific—for free—to add a slew of new Asian adventures to our video journal in a new country for us: Japan. We're starting things off with one night in Tokyo, where we're relying exclusively on robots to facilitate the entire stay. Transportation? Planned by ChatGPT. Dinner? Recommended by ChatGPT. And then, an overnight in the Guinness Book of World Records' first certified robot hotel. Will this experience have us singing Doom Arigato Mr Roboto—or leave us thinking, "Chat WTF?"
