What should I watch out for with AI in the food industry?

In this sector the data is mostly business data (recipes, suppliers, production figures) and rarely personal data, but recipes and specifications are trade secrets. Ask every provider whether your data is used to train models: Trace One excludes training of public models, while OneThird, according to its terms, receives a perpetual licence to anonymised, aggregated data. Pay attention to hosting location: OneThird and Delicious Data host in the EU, SGS FoodNexus is Swiss, and with Qcify the American parent is the controller. Hardly any provider states which AI model sits behind it (Trace One names Gemini). An AI inspection or HACCP proposal does not replace release by a competent employee: legal responsibility for food safety (Regulation (EC) No 178/2002) and labelling (Regulation (EU) No 1169/2011) remains with you. Cameras on the shop floor can also capture employees; arrange that with the works council and a DPIA.
