PepsiCo has joined the Stanford Institute for Human-Centered Artificial Intelligence Corporate Affiliate Program. Together, they will be working to gain insights that advance research, education, policy, and practices throughout the CPG industry; shape industrialized AI applications and responsible AI; and help guide industry leadership toward an understanding of the benefits of AI.

Initially, PepsiCo will work with Stanford HAI to research ethical and responsible AI around four key areas:

  1. Supply Chains, Forecasting, and Smart Manufacturing – With AI, the CPG industry can optimize daily operations throughout the supply chain, better predict future needs such as inventory levels and demand patterns, and reduce human error.
  2. Direct-to-Consumer Impact and Personalization – Growing consumer demand can be more effectively prioritized and managed with AI, resulting in increased engagement, improved customer loyalty, and a better understanding of customers. 
  3. AI and Organizational Design – AI establishes a more agile decision-making process, allowing associates to focus on creative and strategic work. These efficiencies will reimagine organizational structures and future talent needs.
  4. AI and Sustainability – AI can optimize operations and reduce emissions to protect the environment more effectively, and improve the quality and production of agricultural yields.
