Knowing what wine pairs well with certain foods is an art and Samsung is turning it into a science with Food&Sommelier, a service that relies on artificial intelligence to make expert recommendations. The service is capable of making optimal food and wine pairings thanks to an artificial intelligence matching algorithm.
Food&Sommelier is one of the C-Lab Inside projects from Samsung's in-house idea incubation program and it will be making its debut at the first all-digital CES 2021 show.
AI is reshaping the food and beverage industry by changing the way recipes and products are developed, as millions of data points can be used to create pleasing flavor pairings to suit current consumer demands or predict future ones. Although wine lovers used to defer to sommeliers, AI is helping industries go beyond the knowledge, power and creativity of the human brain.
