A company called JL Hufford Coffee and Tea, known as the Internet's largest retailer of super-automatic espresso coffee centers is reportedly working on highly Intelligent Coffee Machines that can read your mind and brew-up just the type of coffee you need at that moment of time! The super automatic coffee machine will use artificial intelligence to churn-up a delicious cup of coffee based on their owner's thoughts. The machine works by learning the drinking patterns for the first several weeks and then it adapts itself to the drinking preference of its user.
