Artificial intelligence: Innovative change in the food industry!

There have been exciting developments recently in the fascinating world of food technology and food science. According to the trade magazine THE DIET The Austrian AI pioneer Sepp Hochreiter from the Johannes Kepler University Linz was one of the key speakers at the food industry's reception event in November 2024. He presented innovative ways in which artificial intelligence (AI) can be used in the areas of energy, climate and health. Industrial AI in particular is viewed as a key technology that has the potential to sustainably transform the food industry.

Martin Ladurner also received the renowned ALIMENTARIUS 2024 science award for his research into protection against infections in infant formula. His work focused on the dangerous Cronobacter sakazakii isolates and the surfaces to which this pathogen adheres. This is particularly relevant because such infections can have serious consequences for infants. In another article, Axel Steinsberg from the Austrian Economic Chamber explains how EU regulations such as the EU Deforestation Regulation and the EU Green Claims Directive will affect food companies in the coming years, which could pose major challenges for the industry.

Insight into the future of the food industry

The Austrian magazine for science, law, technology and economics illustrates the progressive approaches in the food industry. In addition to the role of science in food production, the legal perspective is also examined: lawyer Horst Koller presents the German Animal Husbandry Labeling Act, which promises more transparency regarding the way animals are kept. These developments are significant because they affect both consumers and producers and advance the discussion about quality and ethics in food production.

In summary, it can be seen that the future of the food industry lies in technologization and sustainable development. The challenges ahead require innovative solutions and adaptations, where research and practical application must go hand in hand.
