Providing safe and quality food is crucial for every household and is of extreme significance in the growth of any society. It is a complex procedure that deals with all issues focusing on the development of food processing from seed to harvest, storage, preparation, and consumption. This current paper seeks to demystify the importance of artificial intelligence, machine learning (ML), deep learning (DL), and computer vision (CV) in ensuring food safety and quality. By stressing the importance of these technologies, the audience will feel reassured and confident in their potential. These are very handy for such problems, giving assurance over food safety. CV is incredibly noble in today’s generation because it improves food processing quality and positively impacts firms and researchers. Thus, at the present production stage, rich in image processing and computer visioning is incorporated into all facets of food production. In this field, DL and ML are implemented to identify the type of food in addition to quality. Concerning data and result-oriented perceptions, one has found similarities regarding various approaches. As a result, the findings of this study will be helpful for scholars looking for a proper approach to identify the quality of food offered. It helps to indicate which food products have been discussed by other scholars and lets the reader know papers by other scholars inclined to research further. Also, DL is accurately integrated with identifying the quality and safety of foods in the market. This paper describes the current practices and concerns of ML, DL, and probable trends for its future development.
