As we continue to move into a digital world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is being used effectively in a number of different areas in food production. But will it soon be taking over recipe creation?

For example, at this year’s Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas, Versaware showcased a chopping board and bowl that calculate nutritional information and track portion size.
