How Does Chef Aiman Work?
Chef Aiman uses machine learning to analyse and remix flavour profiles, ingredients, cooking methods, and plating aesthetics. As per its developers, Aiman divides food into categories like sweetness, acidity, umami, texture, and temperature, and reconstructs them into novel recipes. Human chefs execute its vision, taste-test, and give feedback, refining Aiman's understanding in real time. Dubai-based celebrity chef Reif Othman leads the human kitchen team. His crew prepares dishes suggested by Aiman and provides essential human insight.

More About The World's First Restaurant With An AI Chef
WOOHOO is slated to open at a location not far from the iconic Burj Khalifa in Dubai. The space is envisioned as a high-tech dining destination with a cyberpunk vibe. AI-assisted cocktail pairings are also expected. AI will be used for the ambience and service, too.
Can An AI Chef Truly Help Restaurants?
The goal here is to combine human intuition with algorithmic intelligence. "Human cooking will not be replaced, but we believe (Aiman) will elevate the ideas, creativity," said Oytun Cakir, the chief executive of hospitality company Gastronaut, as quoted by Reuters. He added that Aiman can help develop recipes that re-use ingredients often discarded by restaurants, like meat trimmings or fat. Thus, by using the full potential of each ingredient, it aims to promote zero-waste cooking. Gastronaut reportedly plans to license Aiman globally to boost its presence and use.
Dubai has long been a land of firsts. With Aiman, it seems it's all set to now it's cook up a new kind of future for gastronomy. What will this mean for human chefs and their human customers? We'll have to wait and see.

Alpha Star Alia Bhatt Calls Ayan Mukerji's War 2 Trailer ' Mazedaar '
New Delhi: War 2, led by Hrithik Roshan, Jr NTR, and Kiara Advani, is all set to hit the screens on August 14, 2025. The trailer was shared by the makers earlier today, and the fan reactions to one of the most anticipated trailers was well-received. Alia Bhatt, who is also going to feature in Alpha, bankrolled by Yash Raj Films, shared her excitement. Alia Bhatt took to Instagram as she re-shared the War 2 trailer. She captioned it, " Mazedaaaaaarrr. See you on the 14th, in a cinema near meeeee." War 2 Trailer The much-awaited trailer of War 2 was released on Friday (July 25). It's Hrithik Vs Jr NTR in this action entertainer against the stunning backdrop of foreign locations. War 2 opens on a contemplative note, where the two nameless warriors, played by Hrithik Roshan and Jr NTR, introduce themselves through their starkly different ideas of a warrior. Hrithik Roshan AKA Kabir says he wants to become a shadow, dissolving his familial ties, love and identity. Jr NTR takes an oath that he will fight a battle that no one has ever fought. He will become a weapon of destruction. Either he will get destroyed or he will kill - there's no second way about it for Jr NTR. Kiara Advani enters the scene with some scene-stealing action stunts, along with some romantic scenes with Hrithik Roshan. As the battle intensifies, Colonel Sunil Luthra (played by Ashutosh Rana) reminds Kabir that they (he and Jr NTR) are warriors. But will the hero fall to save a warrior? The trailer ends with the famous saying about Karma from the Bhagavad Gita. In A Nutshell Alia Bhatt will next be seen in Alpha by Yash Raj Films, alongside Sharvari Wagh. Some time back, there were rumours of Hrithik Roshan making a cameo as Kabir from War 2. Alia Bhatt shared her excitement for the War 2 trailer, which is directed by her close friend and Brahmastra director Ayan Mukerji.
