“The industry as a whole needs to do a better job of coming together. This competing messaging is not helping anyone." -Kishan Vasani
In this era of technological innovation, one of the most promising solutions for improving our food experience is artificial intelligence (AI).
AI is a technology that allows computers to learn from data and make decisions based on that information. It can be used for a variety of purposes, including personalization of services. For instance, AI is used to identify food trends and predict customer preferences based on moods or other factors such as age or gender which allows restaurants to customize their meals based on changes in customer behavior over time.
Co-founded by Kishan Vasani, Spoonshot aims to determine the future of food through their AI called #foodbrain. They utilize over 28k data resources that include research, articles, social conversations, menus, and more to understand consumer insights, marketing, and product development. This platform aims to help companies and restaurants make better decisions and produce desirable outcomes. Their clients include big companies such as Nestle, Unilever, Mars, Dan One, and Suntory.
Listen in as Justine and Kishan help us better understand the nuances and everything that goes into food personalization, the factors that affect our preferences, how we can be more transparent in the food space conversation, and how companies can work together rather than destroy each other through unnecessary competition.
