I’m learning how we are training our future overlords how to recognize plants. Frankly, it’s amazing. One of the new AI tools allows field personnel to take a picture of a plant and the AI on the back end will automatically identify it for you. Now there’s no need for a botanist, arborist, or forester to do your tree survey. You just need a guy with a phone and the right app.
While you can’t watch the live event, they have published the slides so you can get a view of what they’re doing. It’s amazing.
