The thing that matter the most when making pizza is the quality of the ingredients doesn’t matter who or what makes it
Yes ingredients matter, but when making a pizza one mistake with the ratio of the dough even with the worlds best ingredients can equal disaster. It’s also so easy to over/undercook a pizza. Or load up too much cheese/ingredients. It’s takes practice and finesse to get these right on a traditional pizza oven.
I wonder how their ingredients compare to the other pizza places in that area of NJ.
So you don't mind if your pizza is undercooked, misshapen, toppings are missing, too much or too little sauce, and is not cut? Because you can have the best toppings in the world, but without a competent pizza maker your pizza is gonna be trash.
It’s not just that. Robot one would be the pizza which you can truly call a “perfect pizza” because it has a uniform and consistent amount of toppings, sauces and is cooked to perfection not a second less or more. But yeah it would only be a perfect pizza if the ingredients, toppings and sauces are fresh and of best quality.
Do you want to make pizzas 🍕🙌🤔😉😂🙂🍕🤯🎦🤖📢🥪🧋💖🌇👀🌈💌
Isn't... isn't this how frozen pizzas have been made for decades?
Frozen pizza is super cost cutting, preservatives, shrinkage.
Soo true!!!🤣🤣🤣🤣
Yep albeit at a larger scale, this is made to order
Fantastic point! And they sucks!
I think you all missed his point. His point is that this isn't a new concept. It's actually pretty old. What you do with the pizza after it has been put together is another issue, whether that means freezing and packaging it or putting it straight into the oven fresh.
Robots are definitely the future of fast food. I see this kind of stuff happening at large chains at some point.
*I'm still waiting to be able to rehydrate a pizza, like we were promised in "Back to the Future: part II"...*
Best CNET tech presenter.
Say goodbye to your job at pizzerias in the next 5 to 10 years...
Yep
As a former kitchen and tech person, that is kind of cool.
As a Consumer, will think that is nothing new, frozen food manufacturers been doing that kind of stuff for 50+ years.
Then there is anti-automation people, they are against it for taking people's jobs away, even tho it's been like that for 75+ years in other industries.
As a pizza fan, I like this idea, coz there will be consistency with the ingredients/making of the pizza. And more likely it will always taste the same.
That's the correct word of what we are expecting; "consistency"
Thats definitely the real key to all this. You know what to expect every time.
If anything, the robotic assisted restaurants will be more efficient in terms of resources used as they'll have consistent quality. It also frees up actual human employees to handle other things.
But who is going to spit in my food and give me attitude if I have any special requests for my order??
@@thaatsriight Nah man. I wanna taste the pizza, not someone's germs. Idk where they put their mouth. Da f**k?! Lol.
I have
I have Yeah the
Yes, such as unemployment 😂☠
The New York pizza looks better, but a good pizza needs good ingredients. So probably the robot pizza had better sauce or cheese.
The cheese was good. The sauce and crust needed work.
Robots can't sneeze onto your food.
but they can leak poisonous hydraulic fluid onto it
That machine just adding sauce and toppings which is easily done by an employee and reduces cost of these automated machines and they can break at any time
I would love to have my own pizza machine at the house
It's more expensive than an employee and you still need an employee to feed it.
a bit of a stretch to say the pizza is made by a robot, when 50% of the work is done by humans, and it's also questionable whether you can call an automated topping dispenser a robot. But no matter how it's assembled, as long as you use all the same ingredients it's going to taste the same no matter how they end up on the pizza
Robots have been making food for decades in factories, never seen anyone make a big deal about Delisio pizza.
I guess it's cool that there, theoretically, should never be a burned pizza again, but I want that blistered bubbly charred goodness!
Her energy is infectious. Bridget is the 🐐
loved this report on robotic pizza!
That’s the same oven as dominos. I saw it yesterday.
Ya, conveyor belt style pizza ovens have been around for a long time.
I love the idea.....and the price! I love Costco Pizzas and they have a machine that put the sauce and I think that the cheese too. So, now you should make more pizza videos!!!!!!
PIZZA HQ. We are loving this concept. Central NJ / RUTGERS UNIVERSITY needs this now !!!
Of course food made by robots would be better. They don’t make mistakes or have inconsistencies. Imagine if fast food actually looked like the commercials. Robots could do that.
I mostly agree, but sometimes a person can be more flexible, e.g. using less dough when the dough looks like it will rise more than usual
@@deleteme924the dough will be the same every time because a robot made it, thus solving that problem.
awesome video. can’t wait to eat a pizza made by Picnic Works!
The best part about this is, the robot will make my pizza without getting my order wrong.
You didn't fold it. You ain't no New Yorker! 😂😂
Had the same thought 😂
A big benefit of this process is a consistent Product.
Our kids school get this pizza and one of the trampoline park, Skyzone, uses them for parties.
4500 per month to lease... Why not pay an employee to do that. 🤔

Employee does not work 24.7 and needs benefits, breaks, etc.
When I was a kid, I thought we definitely would have had humanoid robots capable of making a pizza from start to finish by now. Robotics has severally lagged behind my expectations.
@@mattbrew11 that's accurate!
@@mattbrew11 And like your small 🧠. 🤣🤣🤣
Robots don't adapt as well as humans. Robots are good as long as there's sameness.
@@mattbrew11 Thats a simple task. Look at the assembly section of auto assembly plants. Automakers would have replaced humans decades ago like in the body shop. There's been weld robots there since the late 80s because they can do the same thing over and over. Not in assembly. They havent figured out how to install the carpet in the vehicle correctly. The engines are hoisted in by people. It's not as simple as you think.
Thats Unregulated tyrannical religious capitalism for ya lol. If CONservatives didn't treat science as evil sorcery for 2000 years imagine where we would be. Imagine if megacorps weren't allowed to buy truckloads of patents just to eliminate competition and actually used them. Imagine if Cons didn't create oil and a million other monopolies...
Unregulated capitalism is so catastrophic, we are actually regressing. Hall effect controllers from Dreamcast last 20- 30 years and now SONY and MS use analog sticks that only cost 50 cents less to make and only last 120 hours of use. The best toaster ever made was made in the 1940s. The best microwave was made in 1980...
SOON WE WILL BE LIVING IN CAVES AGAIN LOL!
As a long islander this is another reason to hate NJ… it’s about going in saying hey to your buddy making the pizza behind the counter and him making it how you know you like it. For me it’s adding sesame seeds and a well done crust.
Why is the Robot better? Consistency!
Yup robots don't get bored.
Is it the quality of ingredients used that made the robot made pizzas better? Or the consistency of the dough press to form the round shape, which is more uniform than most average pizza makers can achieve?
Slow fermented dough makes a good pizza.
How much is the cost of the machines and how much could you save
its basical a frozen pizza factory but direct to consumer
$4500 to lease the machine each month seems excessive
It will be a great Future where Robots do all the Work
Factories have been making our processed food for a long time .... Including pizza. Now these machines are affordable enough to operate in a small pizza restaurant.... Moores law.
Robot aka machine ..... Both provide automation.
Affordable mmmmk
I love it, someday we'll just be able to walk into a shop with a single machine that can make anything... big warehouse in the back, small store in the front... not one living breathing human in sight... press a few buttons, get a pizza and a grilled salmon steak... swipe your phone to pay for it... oh no your payment was declined... now the door is locked... you're alone with the machine. AI tells you that you can pay off the debt by peeling carrots. That's how you become the last human on earth to ever work in a restaurant.
I'm wondering if they clean the pizza slicers between use.
Do they clean the slicers between pizzas where you buy pie?
It's Always Sunny. "Mac Makes a Robot Pizza!"
Where can I apply
Ever had a pizza from the freezer of a super market. Same thing but now it’s cooked.
The oven looks the same as the one I used 30 years ago.
There is nothing new about a conveyor oven. Pizza shops have been using them as long as I can remember.
Well that explains why they want to outlaw traditional ovens. Meet your replacements middle class and you’ll eat it how it makes it.
Soon well have robot jurnalist talking to us all this .. wonderful changes!!
The robot pizza is better because it’s consistent!
I prefer my pizza toppings to put on by hand. Lol
Europians hearing the work pie and being in intense pain
I grew up in Queens I grew up with a pizzeria on every corner I now live in Florida and I try to avoid franchise pizza I have fond memories of me and, my friends cutting school eating pizzas, and playing video games
Almost fully auto. I can see it maybe another year from order to mouth. 😊
Does anyone else think this is a trick by Shredder and Krang to trap the Ninja Turtles?
as others have noted its not just about automating the process its about the ingredients. so yeah a robot assembled pizza could taste better because human beings made a great sauce and picked fresh vegetables and used fresh dough.
I can only imagine the electric bill the owner of Robot pizza 🍕 has to pay.
Cheaper than paying for extra employees, I guess.
So it's basically Costco and Domino's pizza but better ingredients.
The future is Robot Pizza it seems, also great to see the gorgeous Bridget Carey again.
All frozen pizzas are made the same way!! This is just a small scale.
Robots don't ring in sick or go on vacation, they are the future of fast food businesses.
Machines are always going down bruh.
Automate. Everything.
I want this in Las Vegas. What a gas😊
Can i have one installed in my house? lol
I am very interested in the pizza vending machine.
they don't have a lot of ingredients usually pizza chain average 25 diff. ingredients, they are far to replace regular underpaid labor able to grab and spread multiple type of ingredients quickly and with precision
There’s a place that the whole process is done by a machine even the packaging
They use the same type of oven little caesers has used for decades except much smaller than little caesers
The pizza place she went to afterwards is one of these places that are not run by Italians. Most pizza places in New York are Italian anymore unfortunately
i guess they are working on a robot to replace the guy loading the dough
yes!
Good review
1:38 just like Amazon
So they introduced the concept of a food processing plant, scaled it down, and brought it into the local pizza shop? The only difference I see is the pizza isn't frozen and placed into a box. The real question is not a culinary question, but a business question. How much does it cost to rent or buy these automated machines? And will the cost make them price competitive with the traditional pizza shop. Where is the breakeven numbers when one of these franchises begin to see a profit? It seems you need high volume sales to make this work so you can spread those costs across each pie. Yeah, University campuses is an excellent place to put them because I remember my own uni days and how much pizza was devoured on campus. But in a small town?
Well they started to elude to it, they said "this set-up can cost up to 4,500 a month" which IMO doesn't seem like a lot for something that can pump out up to 300 pizza's an hour. It would not be good for something in a small town. but if it is something that has a decent amount of business yes. the cost of 4,500 a month is 54000 a year. I'd equate that to about 2.5 to 3 employees. If your pizza place has 4 ppl making pizza's it sounds worth it, if you have less then probably not.
A few decades ago when computers started playing chess, top level players would handily beat them and insist that chess couldn't merely be reduced to brute calculation, but rather that there was artistry, imagination and intuition involved in playing good moves, and thus they suggested that computers would never be as good as say the World Chess Champion or any other top player. Well that turned out to be way wrong. Anyhow, so I kind of feel that will happen with pizza. There will be old school pizza makers, especially like legit pizzaiolos in Italy, who will sort of scoff at this technology and say that a robot could never make fine pizza like a top chef could, that it takes artistry and imagination, all the same things that the chess players said, but in fact it looks like pizza can be "solved" with a bit of math, science and calculation. I mean, when it comes down to it, it's just all time and numbers, from the temperature of the oven and how long it has to be in the oven, the amount of toppings, the amount of flour and water in the dough, etc. You just punch the numbers into a computer like here, and it spits out a good pizza. No imagination, intuition or artistry needed.
Artistry itself can be automated -- just look at Dall-e 2. This pizza "robot" is just following a few basic steps on putting sauce on a round object, and letting a certain amount of toppings fall evenly across the surface... but with deep learning neural net algorithms, it's easier to imagine a multi-purpose "chef" robot that can not only follow recipes, but mash-up recipes to create new types of food we haven't thought of before -- all based on what it's learned about our preferences.
Bridget, can you do a review of Epson EcoTank 3850 printer? 🙏🙏🙏🙏
I want to invest in on in my neighborhood!
No jobs, no money, no more pizza.
I'd take a slice of robot made pizza.
Wonder if they can do a Sicilian type as well...
Great video 👍
Shall i tell you why you preferred the Picnic Pizza than the real type? Because the Robot Pizza from Picnic had its ingredients precise and exact consistency from dough to sauce, but and i mean a very big BUT, the real type made by humans hands were a mixture of human nature that has been crafted for many years and ingredients can be out of balance, but in the end it is a pie and pie that tastes nice it’s comfort food. Machine can improve the taste and quality of the pie but not the comforting feeling from a human made pizza, in a way, maybe i’m overthinking this and you to cos of the experience, but a pie is a pie it always varies, buon appetito Bridget.
Isn't Domino's already doing this?
wow ten bucks. that's old school prices. this is the cosco sytem
This is the future.
Anyone can make a pizza. It just requires practice like any other job on the planet. What matters is ingredients.
And oven!
Figures they would ruin how pizza is made.
Crime to "lease" robots to a small business at $5000 a month... forever.
this is so cool!

Interesting about making pizza but did not touch on the wages the owner is paying the humans. Yes they will have more for delivery drivers bt did not state the wages that will be paid. The owner has the pies down to $19 a pie but does he have the wages down too?
The guy touch the dough with bare hands
I hope those guys have clean hands.
In a way I feel like this is hardly even news (no offense to CNET or Bridget Carey). So they made a better assembly line. This was pretty much bound to happen. Pizzas are about getting things consistent. (Ever felt gipped because you didn't get enough cheese or sauce?) If they hadn't called these appliances 'robots' would we even know about them? Certainly similar machines have been constructing our frozen pizzas for years. Burger King has had a broiler that runs on a chain conveyor belt that cooks burgers in 90 seconds since at least the 1980's when I worked there as a teenager (yes I am that old). As far as I know, it was never called a robot. What these devices do is help make a more consistent product, which is what we all want. I hate it when my pizza is sliced really unevenly, don't you? How about when it gets burned on the bottom? Want to know why changes like this are happening now and didn't happen years ago? Well automation is certainly better now and technology is more widely accepted but that's not the whole picture. The other piece, IMO, is the rise in the cost and scarcity of labor. Automation is filling in the gaps for the jobs that are harder to hire for today. It's easier now for a restaurant owner to justify spending $5000 or $10000 or more to get a machine to do a job that was once done by a human.
They look good, hmmm!
Isnt this how frozen pizzas are made?
Call me when it's really robotic. This is definitely not!
More pizza 🍕 is always good 👍🏽
Not if you want a long healthy life.
good to snap from a stroke
this is the future of all fast food. people who want a high wage for a job that is only meant for a starting job. to get your foot in the door to be able to get a better job sometime in your life. well guess what soon in new york and other states it will be going from $15 or dollars to exactly $0.
I mean, If you can control the quality of the output, why not? I don't think this puts it on the level of like frozen pizza or anything. I love the idea and if I had the money to do so, I would love to open a pizza joint with this system myself.
Makes sense less chance for errors from employees. I’m sure they haven’t burned a pizza once since implementing this system
lot of pizza chain already use this type of oven if they set it too high they all get burned
so still relying on human jugement
@@wellthi True, but the identical thickness crusts, cheese amount, and duration in the oven must all make fine-tuning the details a lot easier.
Wait, it makes pudding too??
Wonderful
Conveyer belt pizza is almost universally pretty bad.
Can you say the pizzas were actually made or assembled? Well, no hair on the pie I guess when robots are doing it.
I mean the robot just put the toppings, it's more on the ingredients why the pizza hq one tasted better.
A good pizza starts with a good crust. Its all important from the the dough to the baking.
@@danharold3087 correct, I was only directing what I said towards the product featured which was the toppings applicator and the ingredients used for it.
