Tortilla chips, meet microchips.

Calling Chippy"an autonomous kitchen assistant that integrates culinary traditions with artificial intelligence," Chipotle teamed up with Miso Robotics to create the automated cook, which will followof corn masa flour, water, sunflower oil, salt and fresh lime juice to make the chips, with the added bonus that the taste won’t be compromised.

"Everyone loves finding a chip with a little more salt or an extra hint of lime," said Nevielle Panthaky, vice president of culinary at Chipotle."To ensure we didn’t lose the humanity behind our culinary experience, we trained Chippy extensively to ensure the output mirrored our current product, delivering some subtle variations in flavor that our guests expect.

Most customers shouldn’t expect to see Chippy just yet. It’s being tested at the Chipotle Cultivate Center in Irvine, California, and will be placed into one of the chain’s eateries in Southern California later this year before the company settles on a plan for rolling out Chippy across the country.
