On Monday, March 21, 2022, FDA will air the third in a new quarterly podcast series that focuses on the development and use of new technologies to accelerate prevention of food safety problems and speed responses to foodborne-illness outbreaks. The podcast will feature leaders in FDA and the private sector who will share their unique experiences and insights.

Entitled “Artificial Intelligence in the New Era of Smarter Food Safety,” this podcast will explore the potential of artificial intelligence (AI) to transform food safety. Discussion will center on the opportunities that AI offers to help protect consumers from food safety issues, potential uses of AI that food producers could consider, and what’s on the horizon for AI in FDA’s New Era of Smarter Food Safety.

One of the goals of the New Era of Smarter Food Safety blueprint is to expand its predictive analytics capabilities using AI and machine learning tools.
