Owner-chef of Michelin three-star restaurant HAJIME to advise Sony AI on reimagining the future of restaurants with AI & Robotics
Sony AI, established with the mission to unleash human imagination and creativity with AI, today announced that esteemed chef Hajime Yoneda, owner-chef of HAJIME, a Michelin three-star restaurant in Osaka, Japan, has joined Sony AI as an advisor to its Gastronomy Flagship Project.
Sony AI is thrilled and honored to partner with Chef Yoneda, who is one of the most visionary and progressive chefs in the world. We are excited to embark on a journey to completely reimagine the future of restaurants through the lens of AI and Robotics, from sourcing to cooking to servicing, sustainability and more. Given his record of winning the fastest three-star Michelin rating in history, we look forward to challenging any norms and to creating a bold vision of the future together, said Dr. Hiroaki Kitano, CEO of Sony AI. In addition, Sony AI learned about the Gastronomy community's strong interest and commitment to addressing global agendas through our Chef Interview Series, and we are eager to create a future vision of the restaurants that not only serves delicious meals, but one that also utilizes AI and Robotics to contribute to the health of people and the planet.
Life on Earth has evolved together with changes in the environment and the food we consume. This means, breaking new grounds at the forefront of gastronomy, one bears the responsibility for the evolution of life itself. And when the change spans across both the analog and digital realms, it represents a major turning point. The use of AI and Robotics presents great possibilities from addressing various global food-related issues to new methods of creativity, going beyond mere imitation of cooking. I am truly excited to open each of these new doors with Sony AI. At the foundation of cooking is hope'. I would like to make this a project that brings much hope and excitement to the world, said Chef Hajime Yoneda.
In December 2020, Sony AI announced the launch of its Gastronomy Flagship Project with the aim of enhancing the creativity and techniques of chefs around the world. The Gastronomy Flagship Project consists of the research and development of an AI application for new recipe creation, a robotics solution that can assist chefs in their cooking process, and a community co-creation initiative that will serve as a foundation to these activities.
Today's partnership with Chef Yoneda is a pioneering effort of such co-creation activity. Sony AI will work with Chef Yoneda to gain further insights into the business and operations of a Michelin class restaurant and hopes to further give back to the Gastronomy community through this activity.
