The Modern Bar Cart Podcast

Episode 293 - AI Cocktails (Part 1)


Listen Later

Eric interviews Rob Nester, creator of the hit podcast, Drinking with Robots, about the rise of artificial intelligence in the cocktail space.

This is part 1 of a two-part investigation that poses the following question: in what ways might AI transform how we create, enjoy, and perhaps even think about cocktails in the future?
