Thanks I’d rather my beer stay analogue

What’s next you tech bro wankers, is AI going to drink the pint for me?

… just when you thought they couldn’t force AI into any more things. The epitome of a solution in search of a problem

    I actually don’t even believe it. I’ve brewed beer, I’ve poured beer, I’ve even drank beer.

    At no point in any of these processes could I see ai being used in anyway that would give any kind of benefit.

    I think this is just an outright lie to jump onto the ai hype train. And in the process, completely alienating any customers that aren’t tech bro douchebags

      My local brewery is very connected, with advanced systems checking every step of the process and sending automated alerts. There’s no need for AI

      Unfortunately I think they got their marketing spot on. (Tho I agree with everything you say, also as a homebrewer)

      The venn diagram of people who make liking IPA their personality and people who are likely tech bros is closer to a circle than it should be.

        More likely it overlaps with executives who leap on whatever bandwagon the business article they are reading is or the consulting company told them was hot. See this constantly in IT with programming languages, apps, agile development, etc.
