&gt; Also, Park envisions a future where AI is integrated into every facet of Yum&#x27;s restaurants, from generative AI assisting franchisees to AI-powered kitchen management and delivery platforms. The company is testing a ChatGPT-like chatbot in an internal mobile app used by restaurant managers to track and manage operations. This enhancement would allow team members to ask the app questions like &quot;How should I set this oven temperature?&quot; directly instead of asking a human being.<p>&gt; Yum Brands is also reportedly exploring the use of generative AI for customer-facing applications, such as voice AI for drive-through orders and image recognition to monitor car counts and waiting times. We&#x27;ve previously reported on Wendy&#x27;s experiments with dynamic pricing and AI-powered order-taking. Its dynamic pricing attempts were met with backlash when the news of potentially lowering and increasing food prices throughout the day went public in February.
