Episode 19: Is AI the New Sommelier?
In this episode of Veni, Vino, Variety, we explore a playful and thought-provoking question: Can AI match—or even outperform—a human sommelier?
From tasting notes and food pairings to regional knowledge and personal wine recommendations, AI is already changing how we explore the world of wine. But how close is it to becoming your go-to wine expert?
You’ll hear about:
- The strengths (and quirks) of AI-generated wine advice
- How tools like ChatGPT and Vivino data give AI an edge in recall and personalization
- Why AI sommeliers might soon pop up in wine bars, shops, or even your phone
- A fun challenge: can you guess which tasting notes were written by AI vs. human?
- And, what AI still can’t do—like pop a cork, pour with flair, or read the room like a seasoned sommelier
