Humans never had a chance.
nationwide, the Panera Bread fast casual chain has announced that it plans to test out artificial intelligence at its drive-thru windows for some reason., Panera said that starting this week, it'll be testing an AI system made by the hospitality technology company OpenCity that's named "Tori" — because the whole thing definitely isn't uncanny valley enough, apparently.
Tori, the press release says, will be deployed at two Upstate New York locations and will take orders like a real, live person. An actual human will be the one to take customers' money and hand them their food at the window, but Tori will be the one calling the shots, it seems. "The addition of this technology at the drive-thru will help to cut down wait times, improve order accuracy and allow associates to focus on freshly preparing guests’ orders," reads Panera's statement.
