A pizza chain in Dubai asked ChatGPT to create a topping combination based on the city’s tastebuds and it has turned out to be a huge success.

Dodo Pizza, a restaurant and delivery chain popular in Dubai, used AI to create the “Chicken Shawarma AI-generated pizza” and the city’s residents can’t get enough.

Talking to the BBC, Spartak Arutyunyan, who’s in charge of Dodo Pizza Dubai’s menu development said, “We asked ChatGPT to create a recipe - the best pizza for Dubai. We launched it, it was actually a huge hit, and it’s still on the menu.”

Arutyunyan wanted a pizza that represented Dubai’s multicultural demographic, so the pizza mixes food staples from across the globe to meet the population's tastes. Topped with shawarma chicken, tahini sauce, paneer, onions, tomato sauce, mozzarella, parsley, and Za’atar herbs, there’s inspiration from the Middle East, India, Europe, and more.

Arutyunyan says, “As a chef, I wouldn't mix these ingredients ever on a pizza, but still, the mix of flavors was surprisingly good”.
