TL;DR Summary

Chipotle is testing out a robot called "Autocado" to cut, core, and peel avocados, aiming to reduce guacamole prep time by half. While the robot handles avocado preparation, employees will still be responsible for mashing the avocado and adding other ingredients. The move is part of Chipotle's efforts to explore collaborative robotics and improve efficiency for its employees. The robot could also help alleviate labor shortages in the restaurant industry. Chipotle has previously tested a chip-making robot and is investing in food industry robotics startup Vebu Labs.
