I attended the annual Food and Beverage Ontario conference last week, and it was amazing. Thoughtful speakers and its incredible to see how many great brands are based here in the province. One of the big topics, as it would be, was how AI is going to be this large productivity driver. The numbers they showed were in the 20% productivity improvements with your payback period being around 2 years. Of course that’s great but we find larger increases in production with a much shorter payback period for our clients by focusing on how to improve their current operations and make them more efficient. Without any additional spend. Makes you think what those numbers would be if you brought in AI after maximizing your current operational processes and structures. If anyone in food production here as thoughts on how to adopt AI, DM or drop a comment and lets chat! #AI #Foodproduction #operations

Since when have you started seeing "Cholesterol Free" written on Cooking oil packing? Was it the case right from the beginning? Answer is No! Whenever the consumers become fundamentally and situationally aware, Brands have to showcase they are absolutely free from the aspects/elements their consumers don't like or avoid. While so much AI has been inducted in almost every business functions, especially consumer-facing operations, it has amplified customer concerns about brand authenticity, transparency and trust. It's high time to align GenAI practices with consumer expectations. #brandawareness #consumerexpectations #transparency #trust #AI #GenAI

I think we will get to the point where with all of the #AI #innovation, we get saturated with AI augmentation (not automation, because what’s automated will never come back to the human except in niche or artisinal markets or approaches) I akin this to all of the unnecessary ingredients we see in store bought foods- and now some more conscious consumers look for more simple ingredient lists and less processed foods because of how detrimental it is to health. The processed is AI. And people will yearn for the less processed again at some point to be determined in the future. #happyfriday
