World's first AI bar opens in London - and makes queuing for a pint much easier

The bar, called 5cc Harrild &amp; Sons, has enlisted the help of an artificial intelligence system to help the bartendersVideo UnavailableIt’s a struggle that many thirsty drinkers have experienced, but the days of having to elbow your way to the bar are a thing of the past at one London bar. The bar, called 5cc Harrild &amp; Sons, has enlisted the help of an artificial intelligence system to help the bartenders. The AI bar uses a facial recognition system developed by DataSparQ, that puts customers in an ‘intelligently virtual’ queue. This ensures customers get their hands on a drink based on the order they arrived, and not based on who has the sharpest elbows.John Wyllie, Managing Director at DataSparQ, said: “Queuing is a part of British life that we all have to endure – but we wanted to do something to improve the experience. “It’s the uncertainty of waiting times alongside queue jumpers that’s adversely affecting consumer behaviours in bars and pubs. “The A.I. Bar ensures it’s a hassle free, first come, first served system that makes ordering drinks more convenient for both drinkers and bar staff alike.”Read moreArtificial intelligenceBefore bartenders worry that they’ll be out of a job, DataSparQ has reassured that this isn’t the case. Mr Wyllie added: “The tech isn’t designed to replace bar staff, it’s there to help them become more efficient.” The AI bar also helps to speed up ID checks. If a customer looks underage, the system will prompt them to have their ID ready, or let staff know if they’ve already been checked. In the future, DataSparQ also hopes to add several useful features, including the ability for customers to re-order their drinks while still in the queue, and to set up tabs based on your face.Follow MORE ON
