AI and farming.

[Stormin]

Been playing with ChatGPT 3.5 and am wondering if anyone is using AI to help in their farming decisions be it marketing, weather, crop planning etc? Is anyone using AI to help with research for their responses to threads? What uses do you see for AI in agriculture? Will it be helpful or will it be the hindrance? Will it boost productivity or put us out of a job? Are farms safe or are we all going to die when it pushes the button? I'm interested to know what people think.

AI has been shown to have the same bias as the people who designed it. Thats all you need to know.

Has no practical application for this industry and thats a good thing.

I find your comments very odd. That's like saying the computer has no practical application or the wheel, and there were those who said that, and I agree that it currently does seem woke, but it's already here and to ignore the implications of AI is to do so at your own peril. The future is uncertain, exciting and frightening.

I have used it to help confirm a theory or bolster an idea, but I will say I can see there are people who just don't want to know, just take your jab and lock yourself in your house.

In my past experience AI meant someone or something was getting Fooked ,and looks like they still are.

How so? I would say it's worth a discussion.

Yes, garbage in, garbage out. They were teaching that back in the '70s when computer science was first being taught in University.

Technology is not going to go the way you think it. Soon people wont be able to trust it and it will come with such control and insidious influence, so they will disconnect from it.

Where's Sarah Conner when you need her

Ask it to explain climate change. That response is all I need to know to never let it make any farming decisions. It's like knowing where to research facts but then going to CBC news to tell you their version of the facts. It's got such a leftist slant it's not even funny. If you stick to stuff like churning out a simple arduino sketch then it's absolutely amazing.
