The company compiled information from franchisees and guests on how to measure friendliness, resulting in the fast food chain training its AI system to recognize certain words and phrases, such as “welcome to Burger King,” “please,” and “thank you.” Managers can then ask the AI assistant how their location is performing on friendliness.

If they need food, fast? I'm not sure what age has to do with it. Why would anyone over 20 not want to go to a fast food chain?
