Dr. Baskar Ganapathysubramanian and Dr. Arti Singh from the AI Institute for Resilient Agriculture (AIIRA) join the ‘River to River’ podcast to share their work on AI-driven insect and pest identification for farms.
Using AI image recognition technology trained on millions of insect images, the AIIRA team has developed an app that accurately identifies agricultural pests. This tool can not only aid farmers in making informed decisions about pest management but also has broader implications for agricultural productivity and environmental protection.
During the podcast, Drs. Ganapathysubramanian and Singh discuss the potential impact of this technology on farm profitability, their experience presenting this technology to policymakers in Washington, D.C., and the importance of building trustworthiness into AI models and public-facing AI.
