Costco’s $7000 AI pizza sauce machine

[wzkqiye]

It’s not like it costs them $7000 per pizza… they buy the machine once. A whole pizza costs $16, so they start making a profit after about 440 pizzas. A slice costs $3, so somewhere around 2300 slices until they start making a profit.

Longterm the machine is cheaper than hiring a person. It’s not loving customers; it’s business.

Tell me you don’t know what an AI is without telling me what an AI is.

Not sure they really need an AI in the machine to put sauce on the pizza. Also how is using an expansive sauce machine loving your customers? They never see nor do they notice a difference. So what really the point?

I think it makes sense since the machine itself is an investment, and they have less people on the line, which means less labour cost... I cannot say about the ingredients but even if they charge less they'll probably make a lot of profit selling it

Uhhh Idk abt the “loving” their customers part cuz its a marketing ploy to get u to buy their other stuff just like their cheap hotdogs and chicken… but we all know we abt to buy those everytime anyway cuz dat price is just too good!
