>There are a few details that may save Picnic’s pizzas from tasting as if a robot made them. For starters, the dough preparation, sauce making and baking — the real art of pizza — is left in the capable, five-fingered hands of people.

The dough making & stretching is still done by humans.

It looks like this robot distributes sauce, cheese & toppings (it only shows one topping, though). Then cooks it.

Oddly enough, it doesn't even do the cooking. The bit you cited says the humans do the baking. I'd have thought that'd have been an easy bit to integrate - places like Pizza Hut already bake on readily automatable conveyors.
