how similar or dissimilar are they to each other on a bunch of different vectors? when someone comes up here and we identify their unique preferences, we re looking back at that model in that 3d space to say, well, you like flavours right over here. let s recommend things that are close to that. and we re not going to recommend over here because it s the opposite of what you like. the ai does the hard work so you don t have to. which, personally, i m rather devastated about. why would you need something like this? surely people know what they want to drink when they go out. you do know what you like to drink. but there s a whole world of beer out there that you ve never had before. we ve seen the craft beer space has exploded tremendously in the last few decades. the number of amazing breweries you can go to. now, you go into a bar and you re looking at a list a mile long. give me three beers to choose from, i can do that quickly. give me 100. good luck. i m going to walk away. i l
what may appear as niche applications now may yet turn out to be some of the most critical in the decades to come. and from water to a different sort of liquid beer. which means this is a job for nick kwek. i mean, other people did want to do it, but somehow nick just got there first. what s your tipple, your brew of choice, your poison? well, if you re like me, anything wet is usually the answer. hello there, sir. i d like a beer, please. yes, sir. today, i m tasting three beers, each with their own unique flavour profiles as part of a beer recommendation system by silicon valley based aromyx. when i m drinking the beers, the tablet here, and the camera on it is analysing my
facial expression. so it s looking for if i m having a good time drinking it or if i m hating the beer and then it s got an ai algorithm in the back end, which then comes up with my own personalised recommendation. cheers! did you get that? to be fair, i ve had a couple. the system cleverly recommends beers you may never have tried before based on your videoed response to just these three very different ones. to be able to do it, the company took loads of different beers in this case around a0 and tested them on human nose and mouth cells in their lab in an attempt to digitise taste. we exposed them to the product sample over a three day process, and then, based on how they react, how intense that reaction is, they light up, we measure that light, and then that gives us that unique barcode, so to speak, for the taste or smell. and then we put them in sort of like an imaginary 3d cube of flavour. and we see are the ipas over here and the stouts are over here, and the flavoured orang
