Now, I'm excited to share the full presentation that dives into the details of our work! 📊 Presentation Highlights: The challenges consumers face in assessing food quality and nutritional content. Our AI-driven solution using transfer learning and CNN to classify fruits and vegetables. Detailed insights into our model's performance and the potential impact on food choices. Check out the presentation to see how we approached this problem and the innovative solution we developed. #CLASHOFTAITANS #SARASAIINSTITUTE #AI #MachineLearning #FoodTech #Innovation #HackathonSuccess

I recently created a poster using an AI image generator, unveiling the future of Food Science & Technology for my recent post. Keeping up with these trends is vital for effective communication in our field. Moreover, across all professions, staying attuned to new trends and incorporating AI is essential for ongoing success. 𝗣𝗿𝗼𝗺𝗽𝘁: "Explore the Future of Food Science & Technology with our AI-Generated Poster. Highlighting key trends like Food Sustainability, AI-Assisted Food Preparation, Personalized Food Choices, and Predictive Food Science. Stay ahead in the dynamic food tech industry by staying informed with the latest developments." #foodtech #innovation #aiart #aiimagegenerator #aiadoption

How is AI transforming the future of food? What opportunities does this present for food companies to accelerate product development? And what challenges does the rise of machine learning pose to the food and beverage manufacturing industry? These are just some of the questions we'll be tackling during the session Leveraging AI to Create the Next Generation of Food as part of the Insights programme at Tastes of Better Ascot. Apply to join the expert speakers Sterling Crew, President at the Institute of Food Science and Technology, Carolina Pinto, Thematic Analyst at GlobalData, Geraldine Gilbert, Principal Strategist at Forum for the Future and Bernhard Strauss Director of Research, Camrosh Ltd.

🌱📲 Thrilled to invite papers to our upcoming special issue in Appetite on "The Influence of Digital Food Culture on Contemporary Eating Lifestyles." What and how we eat is constantly shaped by various factors, including technology and changing social and environmental issues. 🍽️💻 Co-edited by myself, Xin-Jean Lim, Isaac Cheah and Colin Michael Hall. 📳 The rise of digital food culture, propelled by smartphones, food delivery apps, and social media platforms like Instagram, has ushered in a new era of "digital palates" and convenience-driven consumption habits. However, alongside this convenience come challenges, such as the risk of 'filter bubbles' limiting culinary exposure as well as exacerbating public health concerns like obesity and environmental issues such as biodiversity loss and climate change. 🥗 🌍As a result, consumers are increasingly opting for plant-based diets and ethical as well as healthy food choices, blurring the lines between traditional and digital food experiences. 🔎 To fully grasp the complexities of this digital food culture, interdisciplinary research is key. We need insights from cultural studies, nutrition science, public health, environmental studies, sociology, psychology, geography, marketing, consumer studies, and economics. Please submit your manuscript via the Appetite Editorial Manager submission portal before December 31, 2024. 📝🍴 see https://lnkd.in/gbiW24s3 #DigitalFoodCulture #ContemporaryEating #HealthAndSustainability #sustainablefood #foodtransitions Colin Michael Hall Isaac Cheah Xin-Jean Lim

👋 Hey everyone! Our webinar is almost here. Don't forget to sign up! Join us on May 22, 2024, for an insightful discussion on how AI is revolutionizing the prediction and management of mycotoxin risks in global food supply chains. We'll also share initial results from our collaboration with GMP+ International, Wageningen University, Cargill, Alltech, and others on early mycotoxin warnings in European cereals.

My colleague, Adams Berzins and I had the pleasure of speaking at the ISOT Conference earlier this week in Reykjavik, Iceland. During our presentation, we discussed the link between the overconsumption of sugar and health issues, which is prompting interest in low- and no-calorie sweeteners. We then delved into how we at Ingredion Incorporated are leveraging AI to customize sweetener formulations by analyzing ingredients, sensory data, and consumer preferences. Interested in learning more about novel sweetener combinations tailored to specific consumer segments, while promoting healthier innovations? Let’s talk! #SugarReduction #Innovation #AI

Fans of ontology, AI, and gravelly voices will be interested in a presentation Paul Whaley is giving this week at the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) about a GRADE Working Group project to develop an ontology for the GRADE Certainty of Evidence and Evidence-to-Decision frameworks. Methods ontologies are new but very important, as information about how research has been done is not yet sufficiently accessible to machines. As always, EBTC is delighted to be able to contribute. https://lnkd.in/eH_b3k3Z

Together with Gabriela URQUIETA VARGAS & Mylene Richard we have been visiting the Eurosense 2024 in beautiful Dublin the last days. Visit - Takeouts: People ♥️: wonderful event to exchange with old peers and partners and make some new connections too. Thank you all. Science 🧬: center of many discussions was - no news - AI - and how it transforms research. Good insights on how AI can help increase data efficiency and credibility on the data gathering and analysis side. What else 🙋♀️: No news that sensory remains number 1 criteria for repeated product purchase and that the journey to healthier and more sustainable products is one we as food industry experts can only take together. Does AI know a shortcut? Not yet, but it’s up to us to explore the possibilities & share the learnings to be closer to our goals tomorrow.

If this is our present, I can only imagine what our future holds. If once LOTUS 123 was enough, today Power BI is handling ever-larger databases. The data revolution is increasingly becoming part of our everyday lives. My annual check-up results are available on an app with historical charts from the past 10 years. I envision a near future where toilets will measure our glucose and creatinine levels and, through advanced AI, suggest dietary changes based on the results. A revolution is unfolding before our eyes. #FutureTech #DataRevolution #Innovation #DataVisualization

Last week I had the opportunity to attend 6Degrees.Ai’s Brisbane event on The Future of Tech, Innovation & Work. Despite not being technical by trade, here are my top takeaways from an event that was brilliantly put together.   1) AI should be boring… for now. There is a lot of excitement around AI at the moment, understandably. The future in this space is so bright and the potential is huge. However, a Data and Analytics Customer Engineer at this event spoke about how most of the current practical applications of AI are fairly simple and focused on basic and repeatable tasks. At the moment, it is a tool to complement your other tools, not to replace them.   2) Australia is leading the way for AI... but we're also the most nervous Interestingly, the Director of National Artificial Intelligence Centre spoke about how Australia is the most nervous towards AI than any other country. Despite this, we are still leading the way in various areas of AI applications, including in laboratory technologies and in livestock and horticulture.   3) Getting the data right Data is foundation of AI, and every panellist at this event spoke about the importance of ensuring you are using relevant data. AI, by nature, learns from the information it is fed; therefore, any mistakes or wrong information it is fed can lead to “hallucinations”. Given how AI learns, this becomes a compounding problem and stresses the importance of protecting the data sources. If you were in attendance or wanted to connect, please reach out, I'd love to hear what other thoughts are on this topic!
