AI Mixologist vs. Human Bartender WIRED

video description

Rating: 4.0; Vote: 1
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. 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.

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.

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.

This was a disappointing video. The narrative starts to feel extremely rushed after the first drink and then there is absolutely no payoff. The bartender's spiel at the end was at odds with the actual results. Absolutely no insight. Makes me wonder if the whole video was written and edited by ChatGPT. I want my 5 minutes back.

People don't understand how gpt works. It's not creating new cocktails based on the preferences. It's scanning the pattern of thousands of cocktail recipes online created by Humans and then trying to create a pattern out of these. How good that works shows the first recipe.

One of these drinks was lovingly crafted by a bartender looking to pay his bills and put food in the fridge.
The other is lifelessly concocted by a rigid machine based on a bunch of beeps and boops. No kids, no bills, not even a belly to fill.

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.
reply

Does what people refer to as AI get better or are the humans are getting worse and regressing to the level that we can model them with simplistic statistical algorithms (which is what journalist usually refer as AI)
reply

Its disappointing y'all just skip the drinks the AI instructed the bartender to make that people guessed on. Those are supposed to be the ones actually worth seeing
reply

I wish you guys would make a long version of this video with all of the tests like the first. I want to see what AI put in and people’s reactions.
reply

so which was better they should've just picked their favorite so the video is informative and not arbitrarily guess which one's which
reply

You added to many variables. Instead of Which is the AI, do which is better. This just turned into a game of werewolf.
