This November 5, the Tech & Co show on BFM Business explored the fascinating world ofOsmo, a pioneering start-up in the use ofartificial intelligence for the odor recognition. This innovative technology is based on graph neural networks, making it possible to predict the smells from chemical structures. During this podcast, many experts, including Frédéric Simottel and Yves Maitre, discussed the implications of this advance, while Apple is exploring the field of connected glasses and OpenAI is interested in the former head of hardware at Meta.
On November 5, the Tech & Co show broadcast on BFM Business highlighted Osmo, a start-up specializing in the use ofartificial intelligence for the recognition of smells. This event brought together several technology experts to discuss the potential impact of this innovation. Using advanced neural networks, Osmo aims to revolutionize olfactory analysis, bringing a new dimension to sensory technologies. In addition to Osmo, the show also covered various topics such as Apple’s smart glasses and the dynamics of recruiting in the technology sector.
An exploration of the olfactory capabilities of artificial intelligence
Osmo is at the forefront of research in AI, focusing particularly on the creation and recognition of odors using sophisticated mathematical models. Using graph neural networks, the start-up aims to understand and predict scents by analyzing complex chemical structures. This innovative approach reveals the unsuspected potential of artificial intelligence in the field of olfaction, opening the way to applications in both the food and medical sectors.
Debate and perspectives during the Tech & Co show
During the Tech & Co show on November 5, François Sorel received a panel of influential specialists to explore the implications of such technology. Frédéric Simottel of BFM Business, Yves Maitre former CEO of HTC, Philippe Dewost, and Michel Levy Provençal shared their perspective on the technological advancement that Osmo offers. Discussions highlighted how AI could transform our interaction with smells, calling it a true sensory revolution.
Promising applications beyond the laboratory
The integration of AI into olfactory analysis goes far beyond simple odor identification. It could improve medical diagnostics by detecting diseases via olfactory biomarkers, or even redefine the way we interact with products by simulating personalized olfactory experiences. For example, in the food industry, this could lead to the creation of new flavors or the improvement of manufacturing processes.
Parallel advances: the rise of connected glasses
In addition to Osmo, the show also explored the potential of connected glasses of Apple, which positions itself as an increasingly important player in technological innovation. This development illustrates a broader trend that sees the convergence of various technologies to enrich and personalize the user experience. The integration of AI systems into glasses aims to provide an immersive digital experience, anticipating a future where the line between the real and the virtual becomes increasingly blurred.
The changing technological landscape through recruitment
Finally, the show touched on the topic of talent dynamics in the technology industry, particularly with the strategic recruitment of former executives from large companies like Meta by other industry leaders. These moves reinforce the growing importance of AI skills in global competition, highlighting the urgency for businesses to quickly adapt to this disruptive technology.
