The hype is justified: AI understands, learns and talks to us. It helps in everyday life. Regardless of whether it's with algorithms, search engines or voice recognition. We are constantly in contact with it when we search, plan and optimise. However, is AI also suitable for use in food technology? Where large data quantities result, AI shines. However, machine learning must be trained to recognise relationships in the big data jungle. Data selection, software solutions and algorithms for food production are highly complex. AI solutions are already used today in predictive maintenance, dynamic price adjustment and transparent delivery chains. What can AI do beyond this? Real-time data analysis is the magic word. In this session you'll become acquainted with the potential of this cutting-edge technology!
