The food and beverage (F&B) industry is undergoing a remarkable transformation with the advent of artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML). Armin Haller, Director CoE Data & AI for APAC at Crayon, sheds light on the impact of these technologies, stating that AI is revolutionizing farming practices and reshaping food and beverage manufacturing. Haller identified two main trends in the application of AI in the food and beverage industry: one in food growing and the other in food and beverage manufacturing. In the farming sector, AI has been integrated into the machinery used by farmers, enabling them to optimize resource usage, monitor crop growth, and make informed decisions based on real-time data. In the context of food production, farmers regain control through the use of satellite imagery and AI models.
