Didn’t the 2k sports games have ads of real stuff included for “immersion”? Never played one, so I wouldn’t know, but I heard about them.

Indeed. I replied to a message talking about algorithms.

While I agree that algorithms and taste are not compatible (yet), there is undeniably a benefit in using some in certain processes of wine making:

There are machines that can control wine oxygen saturation way better than a person, making the wine oxidation much more controlled.

There are so many processes other than that in which you can exploit algorithms to make better wine, and many of them are not aimed at removing the person from the job but rather to making their work easier.

I worked for a company that made these machines and I can assure you that wineries where these machines were installed made a better wine.

Edit: typos, remember to proofread.
