Grocery stores in Poland will trial an AI pricing system for reducing food waste

In the US alone, the Department of Agriculture estimates 30 to 40 percent of food ends up in landfills. A startup called Wasteless thinks machine learning can play a part in addressing the issue. The company has developed an AI-powered system for automatically reducing the price of perishable food items as they spend more time on store shelves. The closer a product is to its best before date, the cheaper it will be to buy. And you'll see all of that reflected in the price tags grocery stores have on their shelves.
