AI vs My Taste Buds πŸ˜­πŸ•

Can AI guess what tastes good? Sort of β€” food apps use AI to recommend recipes and flavours by spotting patterns in what millions of people enjoy, but AI can't actually taste anything.

The Real AI Behind Food

AI doesn't have taste buds, but it's great at patterns. Recipe apps use the same recommendation AI as Netflix or Spotify: if people who like your favourite foods also love a new dish, the AI suggests it to you. Some food companies even use AI to invent new flavour combinations by analysing which ingredients people pair most often.
