Future of Food?

Have you heard about IBM's Watson, the smartest machine on earth? Well aside from trivia, it is apparently an inventor as well. I came across this interesting article about Watson, which has created a barbecue sauce that tastes pretty damn good apparently. The ingredients are also rather unusual, its a combination of flavors that most people would not think of putting together, but that is the advantage Watson has over us mere humans. Watson can access millions of documents and understand the content. In doing so, you can have Watson read tons of food documents and compare how food flavors go together, and Watson can generate a ton of ingredients that are reported to go together well and throw them together in a specific way. This isn't quite computer generated creativity, just calculated numbers; but its something I have never heard of a machine doing before. This is the next step towards creating a real thinking, creative artificial intelligence. The future is gonna be a strange place..
