In our latest Sustainability Bites podcast, in association with Nestlé Professional, we take a closer look at AI and the possible profound impact on sustainability endeavour in the hospitality sector. We set out to define AI in the context of foodservice. We explore the main potential applications for AI and delve into where AI is already being deployed and to what effect. Against this backdrop, we closely examine:
- Food waste measurement and management
- Circular/connected packaging systems
- Energy consumption monitoring and efficiency
- Supply chain visibility/inventory management
- Greener transport logistics
- Precision farming
- ESG reporting and compliance (through real data analysis and collection)
We also shine a light on how businesses are weighing up the cost of investment in AI and the possible ROI, whilst analysing where investment cases are currently the strongest. And of course the elephant in the room: what are the workforce implications of AI of greater adoption of AI.
