On a farm in St. Peters Bay, P.E.I., a black four-wheeled rover with two extended arms trundles through a row of thigh-high green leaves, its giant tires kicking up the red dirt of a potato field.
“Actually, there were a few people who stopped on the road to see what was going on,” said Aitazaz Farooque, the interim associate dean of the University of Prince Edward Island’s (UPEI) school of climate change and adaptation.
From floods, droughts and disease to warmer temperatures and shifts within the growing and harvesting seasons, the agriculture business is rapidly changing, which means farmers — and technology — need to constantly keep up.
You have an input, you want an output," said Yacine Jernite, a researcher in New York who works for Hugging Face, a company that hosts open-source platforms where AI models are shared.
A new tool called Kuzi is helping farmers by providing real-time data using satellites, soil moisture, surface temperature, humidity and more to predict potential outbreaks.
“Behind [the] membrane … is a gas sensor that is sensitive to hydrogen, carbon monoxide and volatile organic compounds,” said company CEO Carsten Brinkschulte.

I mean, ultimately we’re going to want to spend energy doing stuff. Everything we do has “emissions problems” because everything we do consumes energy. Even if the energy it’s consuming is entirely “green” you still need to build the power plants and that energy still costs something.

Exact;y, the problem isn’t consumption it’s production.
The whole point is to make the cost the least damaging and we’re doing a shit job.
