Two cucumber farmers in Japan have received an unusual boost to their business after their son adapted Google's powerful artificial intelligence software to carry out the arduous task of sorting vegetables. Makoto Koike returned to his parent's cucumber farm in 2015 after working as a computer systems designer in the automobile industry. While helping out on the farm, Koike realized that one of the most time-consuming processes could be overcome through automation. Taking inspiration from Google's powerful artificial intelligence computer program AlphaGo, Koike set about designing a sorting system using a $35 Raspberry Pi 3 computer and Google's open source deep-learning platform TensorFlow. "Each cucumber has different color, shape, quality and freshness," Koike said.

In what is being called the "first beer brewed by artificial intelligence," IntelligentX hopes to create products which are constantly evolving by bringing their entire client base and expert brewers together via its Automated Brewing Intelligence (ABI, pronounced "Abbey") algorithm.

Artificial Intelligence is making its way into different fields in our technological world, this includes manufacturing, medical, construction and many others. U.K.-based company IntelligentX Brewing Company is creating beer using a combination of data science and artificial intelligence to brew the World's first beer brewed by artificial intelligence. IntelligentX Brewiing Company is a collaboration between machine learning startup Intelligent Layer and creative agency 10x. As of now, the company has created 4 variants of beer: Golden, Amber, Pale and Black. To be able to create this, they are using some cutting edge technology to do so.
