MIT's AI Pizzas

Artificial Intelligence Goes From Looking at Pizza Photos to Perfect Pizza



Cooking with AI
MIT's prestigious Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence Lab (CSAIL) and the Qatar Computer Research Institute have invented an AI model that takes a series of instructions and generates a finished product - a pizza photo with ingredients spot on.  The AI is called PizzaGAN and the team has trained it to understand pizzas.  By looking at a pizza photo, it can determine the types and the order in which the ingredients were placed. They started with this breakthrough AI innovation at a basic level - understanding a pizza.

New Neural Network
This new neural network is revolutionary and has many applications.  It's not just about pizzas.  The network is a "generative adversarial network" that creates images of pizzas before and after it's been cooked.  The AI looks at an image, determines the type and distributions of ingredients and figures out the correct way to layer in all the ingredients before cooking the pizza.  Essentially, it understands what making a pizza should look like.

Big Applications Beyond Pizzas
At the moment, the AI is creating pizza images and understanding the images.  It's expected to create recipes and undoubtedly start cooking.  But experts say this type of AI has a lot more applications particularly for domestic robots and for construction by using AI to see, understand and then execute on tasks.
