\n Tired of wedding buffet regrets? A Bangalore innovator presents BuffetGPT, an AI that crafts your perfect plate, optimizing taste and variety. Get ready to conquer any spread!\n

The Buffet Dilemma

Many have experienced the post-wedding buffet blues, realizing too late that iconic dishes like creamy gulab jamun or live pasta stations were missed due

\n \n

to early overeating. The sheer scale of Indian wedding buffets, while impressive, often leads to guests feeling overwhelmed, preventing them from exploring the full culinary offering. This common scenario, a source of widespread 'food FOMO' (Fear Of Missing Out), inspired a software professional from Bengaluru to seek a technological remedy for this very prevalent and culturally specific challenge.

\n\n

Introducing BuffetGPT

Pankaj, a Bengaluru-based tech enthusiast, has developed an experimental Artificial Intelligence tool named BuffetGPT, born out of his own recurring 'food regret' after Indian weddings. Joking that 'Indian wedding buffet is a scam' due to the inevitable feeling of having missed out, he channeled his frustration into creating a practical solution. This AI agent is designed to meticulously scan the entire buffet spread and then devise a bespoke eating plan for each guest. It offers recommendations on which dishes to prioritize, which to potentially skip, and the optimal portion sizes, all aimed at enabling guests to savor a wider array of culinary delights without succumbing to post-meal lethargy or discomfort.

\n\n

How BuffetGPT Works

The innovative BuffetGPT employs advanced computer vision technology to meticulously identify every single dish presented on the buffet line. Following this identification phase, Pankaj's AI applies principles of what he terms 'actual stomach volume physics.' This sophisticated calculation determines the most advantageous sequence and combination of food items, ensuring guests can maximize the variety of dishes they experience while effectively avoiding the dreaded 'food coma.' In essence, it functions as an intelligent dining guide, offering discreet advice—like a personal food coach—advising guests to moderate their intake of heavier items such as biryani to save space for delectable desserts like rasmalai.

Early Testing & Future

While currently in its nascent stages and having undergone only alpha-phase testing at a friend's wedding, BuffetGPT has shown promising results. Pankaj reports that initial users were able to sample a significantly larger selection of dishes than they typically would, all while managing their consumption effectively and avoiding overeating. This initial success underscores the potential of AI to enhance the traditional Indian wedding buffet experience. Pankaj humorously remarks that this invention represents the fulfillment of his computer science degree's purpose, highlighting the blend of technical skill and everyday problem-solving that drove its creation.
