There are 18,000 elderly people over the age of 60 on Hongqiao Street in Shanghai. According to a survey by the neighborhood committee, 20%-30% of the elderly living alone here hope that the street will provide "food service" to reduce the trouble and risk of "fire". In response to this, the street cooperated with related companies to develop cooking machines. It is understood that this "AI chef" will also choose to produce soft, glutinous and light food according to the taste preferences of the elderly. Today, on the streets of Hongqiao, between 500 and 800 machine-made meals are sold on mobile food trucks every day. (Xu Mingrui Li Qiuying Gao Yuhui Editor Guo Shihao)
