The use of AI in the food industry
Abstract
One of the pending issues in the modern time is food security. Food safety is under a great threat with the unstable weather conditions, environmental disasters and overpopulation. Therefore, the main aim of the work is to illustrate that there are tools that can positively influence food industry. The so-called tool is artificial intelligence, which is well integrated in various industries. Food industry is no exception when it comes to artificial intelligence. Artificial intelligence is used in different areas in food industry to maximise the production rate, cut the overall time of the processes, reduce errors and waste and more. The work will briefly go through the basics of artificial intelligence. The work will examine the following areas: food inspection, classification and prediction of the parameters, quality control, food safety, navigation. At the end drawbacks of the technology will be covered.
