- A new study from the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, published in the journal *Foods* in 2025, explores the use of ChatGPT in the sensory evaluation of brownies, addressing a fundamental challenge in the food industry Part: 1, Part: 3, Part: 11.
- Sensory evaluation is essential for assessing products based on flavor, texture, and overall appeal before they reach the market, but it often involves lengthy timeframes and coordination, hindering rapid innovation Part: 1, Part: 11.
- The study, titled "The Potential Use of ChatGPT as a Sensory Evaluator of Chocolate Brownies: A Brief Case Study" by assistant professor Damir Torrico, analyzed 15 brownie recipes with ingredients ranging from traditional to unconventional, to determine if AI can offer a streamlined alternative to human tasters Part: 3, Part: 4, Part: 12, Part: 15.
- Torrico stated, "Using AI can give general insights of what products can be considered for further testing, and what products shouldn't be put through that long process," highlighting the potential for AI to assist scientists in narrowing down recipe options and optimizing resource allocation Part: 4, Part: 9.
- While ChatGPT's evaluations showed surprising similarities to human responses, with the AI exhibiting behavioral patterns akin to typical consumers, the study found ChatGPT's feedback was overwhelmingly positive, even for unusual ingredient combinations, signaling a need for fine-tuning AI models to correct biases like hedonic asymmetry before widespread adoption in the food industry Part: 6, Part: 8, Part: 9, Part: 13, Part: 14, Part: 16, Part: 18, Part: 19.
