b'The MI approach makes a huge difference because it is much easier for us humans to give examples than it is for us to write code. Once the algorithm gets really good at drawing the right conclusion, it can apply that knowledge to new sets of data. That is the life cycle of machine learn-ing: ask the question, collect the data, train the algorithm, try it out, collect the feedback and use the feedback to make the algorithm better. This results in increased accuracy in performance.SAS Institute Inc. Advanced Analytical Trainer Andy Ravenna says AI and ML both need very large amounts of granular data coming from extremely diverse sources to be able to find the patterns and learn. Technology that promises to unleash agricultural productivity is here today. The combination . is setting the stage for the next Green Revolution . Joseph BryumWhat is up and coming in future innovations is not necessarily that the mathematics is changing, but the types of things we can do is also expand-ing, he says. Machines began replacing humans in agricul-ture quite some time ago. Self-driving combines and tractors are a reality, using GPS sensors to precisely do what were once back-breaking jobs. Nostalgia aside, few would seek to return to the old way. To dispel the myths surrounding AI, its worth taking a deeper look at what AI can do. Far from being the precursor of humanitys doom, AI may very well play a decisive role in solving one of the biggest challenges humanity faces: the global food security crisis.Joseph Byrum, senior R&D and strategic mar-keting executive in Life SciencesGlobal Product Development, Innovation, and Delivery, says an agricultural industry that incorporates advanced AI into all of its processes would deliver benefits on a global scale.
