Tracking what you use would be a lot easier with AI. Then you wouldn’t have to keep a barcode scanner in the kitchen. You could just have a camera pointed at your food prep space

is AI good enough to manage that with just a camera? how would it determine how much of a given product you uses? Like if you dump a cup of flour in a bowel, how does it know how much that was.

If you have to point the product in front of the camera to register it anyway, might as well use a barcode reader anyway because it's the same thing at that point just without the risk of the AI misidentifying something.
