In today’s fast-paced world, sticking to outdated manual processes isn’t just inconvenient—it’s risky. Can your restaurant afford to watch competitors leverage technology to streamline operations and boost profits while you fall behind? The truth is, AI isn’t just an option anymore—it’s essential.

Here’s why your restaurant needs to start implementing AI now and how to start.

AI in the U.S. has automated labor-intensive tasks. Machine learning sharpens demand forecasts with predictive analytics. These tools save time and boost profits.

But in the Middle East, businesses are hesitating to move to AI. Sticking to manual processes is risky. As developments in AI accelerate, small gains today will become massive jumps soon. Waiting too long will leave businesses behind. According to PwC, the global GDP could increase by up to 14% by 2030 as a result of AI adoption—a potential contribution of $15.7 trillion to the global economy.
