Samsung’s latest innovation unveiled at CES has taken the company’s TV’s to a new level of interactivity. Now within the updates of new features, “Samsung Food” enables the viewers to capture food on the screen and get the recipe. The applications of this AI are pre-dialing which could identify food names and search for cooking instructions for a certain dish.
Samsung's New TV Can Turn Food Images into Real Recipes
The feature is due to Samsung’s acquisition of a food app in 2019 known as Whisk and which has been renamed Samsung Food in 2023. It has also proved to be a masterstroke for Samsung because it not only helped the organisation diversify from simply manufacturing TVs but also placed it firmly in the growing food-tech industry.
Also through AI, Samsung Food has evolved to be a one-stop means for planning meals. Apart from recognizing the dishes, it generates recipes, changes serving sizes, and recommends the appropriate side dishes. This smart functionality allows the users to have their unique cooking experience on the comfort of their Television set.
Samsung Food has a paid version for those, who need much more functionality and interesting additions. For $7/month subscribers can pay for additional options, including premium recipes, a more precise meal schedule, and better compatibility with kitchen appliances.
The use of this technology is therefore a revolutionary step in transforming how consumer engage with household appliances. In just some moments, Samsung’s TVs are not only entertainment tools—they are changing kitchens into smart food preparation arenas.
Samsung Food's TV Feature Faces Limitations Despite Ambitious AI Plans
Samsung Food on the firm’s TVs provides a sneak preview at the potential of cooking support. It also affords users the opportunity to use their mobile phone to capture images of foods on screen that the app will recommend recipes for those foods. Also, the TV version has real-time updates of delivery status of foods and groceries ordered through the accompanying mobile application of prepared foods. Nevertheless, there is still some advantages lost in its functionality.
However the feature can produce recipe ideas from a picture, the over all efficiency of the method is in the process of development. Samsung agreed that other related AI applications, like SideChef, sometimes misidentify all the ingredients in a recipe. Highly developed fanciful bots such as ChatGPT are also unable to efficiently and accurately determine all the constituents of a given dish to prevent the current difficulties in food recognition AI.
Samsung has joined progress by adding a shopping list option which allows someone to sort out the ingredients according to the products available in the refrigerator. This function is a step toward to making the “Samsung Food” app more comprehensive AI-based cooking companion, helping on food buying and choosing meals.
Even while using these features is fascinating, Samsung continues to be skeptical about their benefits. In a press release the company said although it is exciting to turn dish images into recipes the company and its partners are yet to determine how this is effective on the field. Whether this feature will be successful will almost solely depend on how well the app can capture the realities of preparing a meal.
With additional development, Samsung Food could actually revolutionise thinking around mealtime and how grocery shopping is done. At least, it provides the user with a sample what can AI in the kitchen can do but whether it is capable of what it does remains to be seen.
Samsung's AI-Powered TVs: Great Features, But Not a Replacement for Cooking Skills
Samsung’s new AI-powered TVs feature multiple essential solutions that are quite impressive; however, there are some inevitable shortcomings that do not allow those appliances to meet all the needs of individuals with low cooking abilities or lack of time. Even though with the “Samsung Food” feature, it is possible to get an idea of recipes depending on dishes on the screen, the gadget won’t cook the meals itself. Thus, for those searching for some help in the kitchen and who don’t want a cooking robot, these TVs will not suffice.
The second feature is called food recognition while the third is Click to Search, which gives information related to items on screen in real time. It can perform feature like it can tell actors, locations and products or even go further and tell the other series and movies an actor has acted in. It is a helpful app for the audience that desires to get more engaged with a particular show or a movie.
The fan-defining new features for music lovers include the option to use the smartphone as a microphone with “AI Karaoke” and the ability to remove lyrics from songs. This feature will extend a brand new degree to the home entertainment, which has tended to let one and all enjoy an individualistic singing session.
Samsung is also heading in the right direction with real-time AI translation for the physically challenged. This feature allows the script to subtitle the live cirarcasts in seven different languages, making the show more enjoyable by people in different parts of the world. Regardless of whether a person is using the application to translate a foreign-language broadcast or to view a live event, this functionality helps to overcome main language barriers.
Such of it, that it came out from some unnamed source that Samsung will produce three distinct models of these AI partnered TVs, though it is not certain what these differences are. Consumers are waiting to find what exactly sets the models apart, but judging by Samsung’s desire to innovate the home entertainment front, it is just getting started.
