Harnessing the Power of AI for Data Analysis: Revolutionizing Digital Marketing and Customer Service for the Restaurant Industry
My name is Mark Derho, representing PR Website Agency. I taught myself HTML and PhotoShop in 1993, and the myriad of skills, and tools thereafter that I possess. Let’s get started.
Artificial Intelligence (AI) is the most powerful and transformative technology I have ever seen, including the launch of the WWW in 1993 which changed my career and my life. Now as then, this technology has revolutionized my approach to everything I do professionally. And now, by leveraging the capabilities of AI, I can ALSO create and transform raw data into insightful information in no time, and so much more!
This blog post provides a simple and practical demonstration of AI for Data Analysis my AI-driven skills and service in action. Leveraging the power of AI, I’ll be asking questions of the AI Chatbot in order to generate a working and insightful list of the 25 most popular restaurant items in the United States.
This hypothetical list based on LLM knowledge and extrapolation not only identifies the meals but also provides valuable details such as main ingredients, preferred sides, whether they’re vegan or non-allergenic, an estimate of cost and calories, and a health ranking.
This task accomplished would have taken significant time and effort to complete manually, yet now was accomplished swiftly and efficiently using my experience combined with AI.
This process would be the same with private data as well, this is an example and shows the versatility of AI in handling and interpreting data in various ways, depending on the business’s specific needs or goals. The value of this service is multifaceted. For businesses, especially those in the food and restaurant industry, such a list can provide key insights into customer preferences, dietary trends, and market patterns. It can inform menu decisions, marketing strategies, and customer service responses.
The rapid generation of this data also demonstrates the speed and efficiency of AI, qualities that are increasingly critical in today’s fast-paced business environment.
In summary, this example showcases how my AI-driven service can be used to quickly generate, organize, and analyze data for businesses, thereby enhancing their decision-making, improving their responsiveness, and ultimately boosting their performance in the marketplace.
Now let’s take a look:

Mark: Which 5 meals are the healthiest?
AI Chatbot: Determining the “healthiest” meals can be subjective and depends on many factors including individual dietary needs, portion sizes, and preparation methods.
However, generally, meals that are lower in calories, saturated fats, and added sugars, and higher in fiber, vitamins, and minerals are often considered healthier. Based on the list provided and using these general principles, the following five meals could be considered among the healthier options:
Grilled Vegetables: This meal is low in calories and fats and high in various vitamins and minerals. Plus, it’s vegan and can be non-allergenic depending on the vegetables and herbs used.
Quinoa Salad: Quinoa is a great source of protein and fiber. Along with mixed vegetables, this dish is nutrient-dense and relatively low in calories.
Vegan Chili: High in fiber and protein from the beans, this dish is filling and nutrient-dense.
Tofu Stir Fry: This meal can be quite healthy depending on the variety and quantity of vegetables used.
Tofu is a good source of protein.
Chicken Noodle Soup: While not as low in calories as the other options, a well-prepared chicken noodle soup can be relatively low in fat and provides a good balance of protein, carbohydrates, and vegetables.
Please note that these assessments are made on generalizations of the dishes and actual nutritional value can vary greatly depending on the specific recipe and portion size. Always consult with a healthcare provider or a dietitian for personalized dietary advice.
Mark: Better question, based on the list of 25, list by healthiest and add to the chart.
AI Chatbot: Ranking meals by their “healthiness” can be challenging due to variations in dietary needs and definitions of what constitutes a “healthy” meal.
However, a common approach is to consider factors like calorie content, nutrient density, and the balance of macronutrients (proteins, fats, and carbohydrates).
To keep things simple, I’ll make a few broad assumptions:
Lower-calorie meals are generally healthier (assuming they’re also nutrient-dense).
Meals with a balance of protein, carbohydrates, and healthy fats are preferable.
- Grilled Vegetables
- Quinoa Salad
- Vegan Chili
- Tofu Stir Fry
- Margherita Pizza
- Chicken Noodle Soup
- Veggie Burger
- Chicken Tacos
- Beef Burrito
- Caesar Salad
- Pancakes
- Shrimp Scampi
- Bacon and Eggs
- New York Style Pizza
