There is an AI-powered robot chef at the canteen(食堂) in Shanghai Minghang High School. The robot begins work at 8 a. m. every day. It does many jobs, such as food preparation, cooking, reheating and distribution(分配). It can cook over 1,000 dishes.
The machine only started to work two months ago, but it has already won the hearts of many students. Many students said that these robot-prepared meals taste better than those made by a chef.
Presently, the robot provides six dishes for students to choose from during each meal, including two meat dishes, two meat-and-vegetable dishes, and two vegetable dishes. Soup and fruit are still distributed by waiters. The machine is still in the testing stage, and a self-service cashier(收银员) will also come out after it is connected to AI image recognition technology.
