An artisan roastery based in the Finnish capital has introduced a coffee blend that has been developed by artificial intelligence in a trial in which it’s hoped that technology can ease the workload in a sector that traditionally prides itself on manual work.

芬蘭首都赫爾辛基的一家工匠咖啡烘焙坊，推出1款由人工智慧研發的咖啡混合物，這是一項試驗，希望能夠利用科技，減輕這個以手工製作自豪的傳統產業的工作負擔。

It is only apt that the Helsinki-based Kaffa Roastery’s “AI-conic” blend was launched this week in Finland, a Nordic nation of 5.6 million that consumes the most coffee in the world at 12 kilograms per capita annually, according to the International Coffee Organization.

根據國際咖啡組織的數據，芬蘭是世界上咖啡消耗量最高的國家，人均年消耗12公斤。位於赫爾辛基的卡法烘焙坊，本週推出這款名為「AI-conic」的混合咖啡，恰如其分地體現了芬蘭這個擁有560萬人口的北歐國家對咖啡的熱愛。

In addition to selecting a blend of coffee beans from Brazil, Colombia, Ethiopia, and Guatemala, AI also created the coffee package label and a detailed flavor description, stating that "AI-conic" is "a well-balanced blend of sweetness and ripe fruit." (AP)

除了從巴西、哥倫比亞、衣索比亞和瓜地馬拉挑選咖啡豆外，AI還設計咖啡包裝標籤，並撰寫詳細的口味描述，指出「AI-conic」是「甜味和成熟水果的平衡混合物」。
