An “infinite bowl-making machine” can make 500 salads, Tex-Mex, and poke bowls with the exact ingredients you want down to the personalized macros you’re tracking in an hour. A human worker can’t come anywhere close, according to entrepreneur Marc Lore.

“I don’t know exactly how many a single person can do, but it’s not going to be more than probably 30 an hour, maybe 45,” said Lore, who spoke at the 25th annual Fortune Brainstorm Tech conference in Aspen on Tuesday. Lore previously sold two businesses, Diapers.com and Jet, to Amazon and Walmart, respectively, for $3.8 billion before founding food-tech startup Wonder in 2018, where he serves as chairman and CEO.
