Скачать или смотреть African smallholder farmers sowing success with AI | Jonas Sogbadji | TEDxBoston

A brief overview of the limitless potential for AI to be harnessed by African Smallholder Farmers to easily, efficiently and sustainably tackle food insecurity both locally and globally, therefore mitigating the burden of climate change and malnutrition. Jonas Sogbadji is a PhD Candidate at MIT from Togo whose work focuses on Cardiology. However, his time in Togo gave him a deep understanding of how essential farming is to his family and community—and how devastating crop failures can be. With the rise of AI and the growing challenge of food insecurity, he is also exploring how AI-driven agricultural solutions, tailored to the African context, can empower African Smallholder Farmers.
