Culinary Intelligence…
The challenge…• To illustrate how to integrate massive amounts of
complex data into a system whereby one can make rapid high-confidence decisions about where to eat.
– Can we identify replicable processes that facilitate rapid decision-making?
– Can we find mechanisms for determining and articulating what factors are important to decision-making from massive amounts of complex data?
– Can we figure out how to portray this information to the human system in ways that minimize decision-making pathologies (paralysis, over analysis etc)?

What we need to understand…
• How do the best among us make these kinds of decisions…– Does the thought process we go through influence the speed
and quality of our decision-making?
• How we perceive and process information…– Do the ways in which the information is displayed influence the
speed and quality of our decision-making?
• How can we display or portray massive amounts of information in ways that accelerate our ability to achieve high quality decisions?
• Can these processes and tools be integrated and automated in ways that improve the speed and quality of our decision-making?
