Abstract
Artificial intelligence (AI) is the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence. With teeming competition and increasing demand in the food industry, the industry has begun to embrace AI technologies in a bid to maximize profits and explore new ways to reach and serve the consumers. AI has been successfully deployed for applications such as sorting fresh produce, managing supply chain, food safety compliance monitoring, effective cleaning in place systems, anticipating consumer preference and new product development with greater efficiency and savings on time and resources. However, there are challenges to adoption of AI technologies which include cost, cultural changes, expert skill requirements, transparency issues and one track minds. Despite these challenges, researches are on-going on optimized production process using AI but it is important to note that the benefits of AI application in food industry greatly outweigh its challenges.
Highlights
Artificial intelligence traditionally refers to an artificial creation of human-like intelligence that can learn reason, plan, perceive or process natural language [1, 2]
Artificial intelligence is a branch of computer science which mainly deals in creating machines that are developed in such a way that it acts like a human being
Machine learning models are being developed to deal with the complexity and variety of data in the food industry [5]
Summary
Artificial intelligence traditionally refers to an artificial creation of human-like intelligence that can learn reason, plan, perceive or process natural language [1, 2]. It is the theory and development of computer systems able to perform tasks normally requiring human intelligence such as visual perception, speech recognition, decision making and translation between languages [3]. These models learn from data and are used by people, companies and government agencies to make predictions.
