AI Mixologist vs. Human Bartender: Can You Taste the Difference? | WIRED

Ойын-сауық

Can people distinguish the taste between a cocktail generated by AI and one lovingly crafted by a human bartender? We challenged a group of bar patrons to submit their drink preferences in order to produce two unique cocktails for them to try. Watch and see which drinks align best with individual human flavor profiles: the precision of AI or the art of human craftsmanship.

    The question should have been, “Which of the 2 drinks do you prefer?” Unfortunately, guessing at AI vs. Human gives us no clues as to either AI’s or the barman’s actual ability to interpret the request to the liking and/ or palatability.

    They are literally guessing 50/50, so out of 2 choices they can't pick better than a random guess. I'm saying AI is on-par with humans. They should redo this and have all drinks made by a human or all drinks made by AI and see if they can guess right. Pretty sure they'd still come up with 50/50.

    Would have been a better video if it showed way more than it did and made it longer. The first person was great because it showed both drinks being made and a lot of comments by the customer. Then it just went totally down hill not giving much detail on any of the others. And perhaps to get a better reading, also tally which one each person liked better.

    Another way to frame this result: the AI went toe to toe with someone who spent, as I assume, a decent part of their life learning and fine-tuning their craft, and succeeded in convincing half of the party-goers that it was good enough to produce a cocktail at the same level, despite being an imperfect technology and not purposefully designed to replace bartenders. I am thrilled and can't wait to see what it will do next!

    I would have liked to see the bartender's comments along with the person's guess. e.g. The bartender thought AI was completely wrong to mix certain flavors, but the patron loved it and guessed a person created it. Also, I'm wondering if the patrons were merely saying their favorite drink was the one created by a bartender and the one they didn't like was AI generated.

    I would love to dig into what makes something "creative" vs subtle. Do people expect AI to go against the norms? Does AI tend to mix together liquors or flavors that humans would not naturally combine? Does AI predict accurately predict the outcome of those unique flavor combinations? I would be interested in seeing if AI can introduce us to mixing liquors and flavors that we would not normally pair together.

    as companies/app developers build up big data in terms of human preferences and the nuances involved in making an alcoholic beverage, the results will get better and better. for now humans win. In the future AI will win. It all comes down to how and who will be able to leverage big data in order to apply it to this small part of life. It'll take a while because there are other more important aspects of life such as diseases and illnesses that are first in line for this process to develop.

    Cocktails at their core are just ratios and balance. Once you know what you're working with then you can make substitutions. Example a classic sour is: 2oz strong, 1.5 acidic, .75 sweet.. It's fairly obvious that an AI can do just as good if not a better job than a bartender can, as can a cocktail calculator or a simple classic ratio book have existed for a very very long time. Bartenders are not going away anytime soon for one; legal reasons, - you need to monitor people while they sip poison. And 2 just the basic human element - Just think Starbucks (robot makes your coffee, human hands it to you).

    You don't understand how "new" works. It doesn't matter if it's inspired by existing recipes, if it's new it's new. A human would probably do it in the same way - if you wanted a new sour drink, you might look at recipes for other sour drinks and just pick and mix with similar proportions.
