Chat-GPT and the brewing industry: an unexpected duo

In a world where technology is evolving at lightning speed, artificial intelligence (AI) is making its mark in various sectors, including the brewing industry. In episode 15 of the podcast 1000 Hectos, Ludovic Mornand and Dorothée Van Agt explore the potential applications of AI, in particular ChatGPT, in the brewing industry.

AI and brasserie may seem like two worlds apart, but they have more in common than you might think. Modern breweries are increasingly technology-driven, using digital tools for everything from production management to marketing. AI, with its ability to learn and adapt, can offer innovative solutions to improve brewery efficiency and productivity.

ChatGPT: An innovative editorial assistant

ChatGPT, an AI developed by OpenAI, has been designed to understand and generate text consistently. It can help with writing documents, articles, e-mails and more. In the context of developing a craft brewery, ChatGPT can help you write beer descriptions, tasting notes, and even beer blog posts !

Ludovic's technique for optimizing ChatGPT

Ludovic Mornand shares an interesting technique for getting the best possible answers from ChatGPT. He suggests asking precise, detailed questions to get more accurate answers, while putting the AI in context ahead of the conversation. For example, instead of asking ChatGPT to describe a beer, we could ask it to describe «a blonde, Belgian beer, with fruit and spice notes, made with such and such hops, malt and yeast.»

AI: A replacement or a productivity booster?

Whether AI will replace humans is a matter of debate. However, Ludovic and Dorothée suggest that AI, like ChatGPT, is more of a tool that can increase productivity. Instead of replacing humans, it can help automate repetitive tasks and free up time for more creative and strategic tasks. However, it's best to get to grips with it quickly, so as to enjoy its benefits before anyone else!

AI and productivity

AI can automate many tasks that take time and human resources. For example, ChatGPT can help write beer descriptions, allowing brewers to focus on creating new recipes. In addition, AI can help analyze sales and production data, which can help optimize stirring and improve efficiency. Another idea: why not submit your’brand architecture and ask him how you could develop your portfolio and new beverage categories ?

AI and creativity

Far from curbing creativity, AI can actually stimulate it. It's not for nothing that 90% of Midjourney users are, after all, artists and graphic designers! By automating repetitive tasks, artificial intelligence frees up time for reflection and innovation. What's more, it can provide new information and ideas that can inspire creativity. For example, ChatGPT could suggest new flavor combinations for a beer based on existing beer descriptions, or help you develop your lexical field of brand or your naming.
