New Delhi, March 30 (IANS). According to one study, chat GPT can be used in the sensory evaluation of foods, especially brownies, which can simplify the growth of new products and help improve the recipe.
Researchers at the US University of Illinois Arbana-Shampain studied 15 different brownie recipes, including unusual combinations from the list of common materials, such as milvarm powder and fish oil.
The study author Dameer Torico, who is an assistant professor in the Department of Food Sciences and Human Nutrition, gave a recipe formula to the chat GPT and asked him to describe the sensory features of each brownie, including taste, texture and overall bliss.
Torico then classified the subjects of chat GGPT reactions to determine that they were positive, negative or absolute.
In a study published in Journal Foods, Torico said, “Sometimes, depending on human testers can slow down the process, especially when samples of several products have to be evaluated simultaneously. The sensory panel requires time and careful coordination, and in some cases, some materials may not be food-grade, which may be unnatural tasting.”
For this reason, big language models such as chat GPT are being considered for sensory evaluation. It is possible that models should be made that mimic human reactions.
The surprising thing was that the chat GPT reactions were highly positive, even for those recipes that were with unusual materials.
This positivity corresponds to the mental principle known by scientists known as “Headonic Association”.
“Headonic Association” means that people (and of course AI) describe things more positively that are beneficial for them. Torico explained, “Foods work to calm our hunger and give us energy, due to which man shows positive response to food.”
ChatjPT’s human reaction displays this behavior. Torico said, “ChatjPT was always trying to see a good side of things.”
“Use of AI can help give a general approach to which products can be considered for further testing and which products should not undergo long process,” Torico said. “I think the chatGPT can be developed for sensory evaluation to help the industry.”
