google-ai-helps-make-safer-baby-food

Japanese food producer Kewpie Corporation has revealed that it's using Google's TensorFlow to quickly inspect ingredients, including the diced potatoes it uses in baby food. The result was an inspection system with "near-perfect" accuracy, culling more defective ingredients than humans alone -- even with a conveyor belt shuttling potatoes along at high speed. The TensorFlow system handles the initial removal, but there are still people waiting to inspect the potatoes afterward. The tech is currently limited to Kewpie's baby food, but the company expects to spread it to other foodstuffs before long.
