Synchronicity: AI Can Help Bridge the Gap in Climate Action
by Klaus Mager
Expanding on the plan to introduce and expand the role of AI in our food system:
Conversations with AI - The Future of Food
While there are valid concerns about the role of AI in our collective future, we should not allow that to paralyze our response to a far more immediate concern: surviving a changing climate by mitigating and adapting to the needs and demands of nature.
I maintain the same story; while our food system as configured today is a main driver of environmental degradation, it also has the capacity to change from contributing 1/3rd of global emissions to going carbon negative. The most significant challenge is to work with a common set of assumptions that coordinates and communicates across the spectrum of the economy a set of targeted outcomes, achieving what I would refer to as Synchronicity.
AI can fill that gap, provided that the algorithms feeding it are trusted and made widely available. It does sound like a very OGMy kind of thing to do.
