Even though it's apparently a pretty lackluster soda, I think it's pretty notable that I haven't seen any reviews saying that it's outrightbad, it's just not great. That's better than I would expect from just randomly mixing ingredients.
Now we don't know how many iterations it took to get them to that point, what kind of prompts or human handholding it took to get it to that point. It very well might be that the computer gave them a thousand bad formulas and this was the only one that was remotely palatable, but we don't know and probably never will know if that was the case.
Not that I think coke will do it, but personally I think it would be cool for them to take the feedback they get from this soda, feed it back into the ai and have the computer design a version 2.0 based on that feedback and see how well it goes, and keep iterating it that way and see where they end up.
