A better agriculture thanks to AI?

AI killer or healer?
For thousands of year, men have been relying on agriculture to live, which has proved to be risky, as it relies on things we cannot control (weather, wars, political situation, etc.).
What if AI could help us increase agriculture's returns and improve it's reliability?
AI computers can process billions of data points and turn them into a coherent set of information, which will help them predict future behaviours or probability that an event happens.
In farms, these data points are produced daily but not taken into account by farmers because it is too much. With AI, farmers could deal with- and analyse a wide variety of data in real-time, such as weather, temperature, water usage, and soil condition. All this data directly collected from their own farm to adequately inform their decisions.
1- How AI can help with pest control
A company called Agrosmart is developing a technology that will help farmers to use the right amount of agrochemical at the right time to combat pests more effectively.
Led by agronomist Marcus Vinicius Sato, "The project entails using artificial intelligence to identify and quantify insects". The farmers will be able to use pheromones attracting insects to strategically disseminated traps equipped with sensors in the plantation. The sensors, connected to electronic systems, will transmit the data to an internet server, where images will be treated and insects will be identified. The farmer then receives a report on this data via a smartphone or tablet and depending on the number of insects per square meter, agrochemicals may or may not be used.
2- How AI can improve your crops yields
Precision Agriculture (PA) is an agricultural management style using AI systems to improve harvest quality and accuracy. PA uses AI to help in detecting diseases, poor nutrition or bad sun exposition in plants. AI sensors can detect and target weeds and decide which herbicides to apply within the right amount.
Also, farmers use PA to improve agricultural accuracy by creating probabilistic models for seasonal forecasting. Such models can look several months ahead and use previously collected data to provide farmers with actual predictions concerning the best crop varieties for the season, ideal seeding times and locations. Agricultural AI technologies can then optimize farm administration by basing choices on prognosticated weather during the coming season.

Emotions and technology, believe it or not, are now related Do you know someone who suffers from depression? I bet your answer is yes, it can be either a friend, a family member or a friend of a friend. What would you recommend them to do? Go see a psychologist? What is the first thing that comes up to your mind when I say emotions? I might not know your specific answer, but I know you eventually thought about the direct relation in between humans and emotions. Could you imagine a robot that can understand your feelings as the same level of a human? It might sound crazy at a first glance, but thanks to EAI it is now a reality. The Freudian theory states that psychologists can not get emotionally involved with their patients, due to subjectivity and the temptation to provide personal advice. If we further analyze this, we will come to the conclusion that this trait is normal, as it reflects the natural human instinct of being compassionate. I...

Artificial Intelligence: Hotel to Botel? Deloitte estimated the size of the global travel and tourism industry at around $1.6 trillion in 2017, accounting for 10.4% of the world’s gross domestic product. A study by Nielsen showed that millennials are more likely to travel than other generations. They also have a desire to customize their travels which is where AI comes in. Artificial Intelligence is used in numerous industries ranging from agriculture to healthcare. Equally exciting, AI has an increasingly important role in the Hospitality industry. Can you imagine having an intelligent robot at your disposal, 24/7, when traveling? AI in hospitality is becoming more appealing to hotel owners and investors for financial reasons. Not only is it cheaper in the long run, but it gives customers a personalized and exciting experience. An intelligent robot would also provide higher quality service as it removes the human error and adapts to the customer. Conni...
