What is the role of AI, AR, and VR in the food industry in future?

The food industry is a tough industry to crack because it is equally driven by creativity and technology. AI is generally not known for creativity. But who knows we might come up with AI algorithms to boost creativity.

In the food industry AI can be used to create new recipes based on a combination of ingredients, taste buds (smell, texture, bitterness etc) , nutrition. Since we have so many ingredients today, only machines can actually explore different combinations. Thats where creativity will help to segregate a good recipe from a bad one.

AR/VR could be used to virtually taste, sense and feel the texture of new recipes even without producing them to test their applicability in the real world. You could test everything from presentation, colours, flavour and taste through AR/VR hence saving lots of costs in actual production.

This is, assuming AI cracks the creativity and taste puzzle that is a big requirement in the food industry
Technology has been a constant factor in helping global industries grow, and its future role seems to be fixed. Techs like AR, VR, AI, Blockchain, ML, and IoT are slowly becoming the norm in the market.

All the advancements are gradually making their presence known and felt throughout the market. The same is evident from the sheer growth of the AI, AR, and VR domain. The AR market is expected to reach around 61 billion dollars by 2023.
Even retailers are using the tech to simplify their proceedings. The disruptive tech is accepted by 32% of the regular consumers and 73% of users with smartphones. The stats are enough to showcase the capability of AR.

The AR, AI, and VR industry has also managed to rack up some impressive numbers on the global stage. AI and VR both have entered the food industry to enhance it. Many food brands have started using AI chatbots on their website and customer support section.

Over time, all three techs are expected to gain more prevalence, especially in the food industry. That is why the blog will show how AI, AR, and VR will play a big role in the food industry’s future.
