Starbucks has ceased using its AI program for automating inventory operations due to malfunctioning. This was reported by Reuters, citing sources. The application was introduced nine months ago in all North American stores. The tool was part of CEO Brian Niccol's efforts to address the persistent issue of stock shortages in the coffee chain, which he believed led to a decline in sales. The program, intended to improve deficit control, incorrectly counted and labeled products. For instance, it could confuse similar types of milk or omit them entirely. “As of today, the automatic inventory system will be decommissioned. Milk and beverage components will now be accounted for in the same manner as other product categories in the coffee shop,” stated an internal newsletter seen by Reuters. In February, the company reported improved product availability in stores thanks to the AI application. In a new comment to the agency, the firm stated that the service's discontinuation is linked to a decision to “standardize inventory counting across all coffee shops.” Reuters highlighted that employees welcomed the move away from automatic inventory. The idea “was great, but in practice proved difficult to implement.” Back in June 2024, McDonald’s abandoned IBM's AI technology for automated order taking due to customer complaints.
