Will AI Weed my garden? (and no that's not Al, that's artificial intelligence)

About this episode

The episode explores the role of artificial intelligence in gardening and its limitations.

The Garden Guys are digging into a topic that’s growing faster than mistletoe takes over a tree: artificial intelligence . We’ll explore what AI actually is, what it isn’t (no, it can’t weed your garden… yet), and how it might show up in the gardening world. We’ll also talk about the limits of AI, why it still can’t replace dirt-under-the-fingernails experience, and how gardeners can use technology as a helpful tool rather than letting it run the whole garden bed. If the robots start coming for your tomatoes, turn your computer off. Immediately. Then go outside.
