AI in agriculture calls for imaginative policy-making

Ignoring technological changes in agrarian relations would be ill-advised

Studies on the industrial impact of artificial intelligence have so far focused on work and production in the services sector, such as programming or healthcare. There is little focus on manufacturing, but even less focus on its potential impact on agriculture – even though about 27% of all workers in the world engage in agriculture .

An even larger number – almost half of the Earth’s population – lives in households that are linked to agrifood systems . This is unevenly distributed: only about 3% of all employment in high-income countries […]

Robots plus generative AI: Everything you need to know when they work as one

Robots plus generative AI: Everything you need to know when they work as one

Andriy Onufriyenko/Getty Images We keep dreaming — albeit they’re most often nightmares — of intelligent robots such as Terminators. However, while robots are now essential for factories and making inroads in the home, no one could mistake them for being intelligent. Roomba cat rides and smart vacuums are fun and useful. Intelligent? Not so much.

But since generative AI exploded on the scene, people have started combining AI and robots to create a new age of smart robots. As we enter the last quarter of 2023, it’s clear that the melding of these two will create an era of unparalleled […]

AI-Powered Robots Revolutionizing Industrial Manufacturing

AI-Powered Robots Revolutionizing Industrial Manufacturing

AI-powered robots have emerged as a game-changer in the world of industrial manufacturing, significantly transforming the way products are made. These intelligent machines, equipped with advanced artificial intelligence algorithms, are revolutionizing assembly lines and streamlining production processes.

Unlike traditional robots, AI-powered robots possess the ability to learn from their environments, adapt to changes, and make autonomous decisions. They are equipped with sophisticated sensors and cameras that enable them to perceive their surroundings, making them more aware and responsive in dynamic manufacturing environments. This heightened situational awareness allows for increased efficiency, improved safety, and reduced errors.

One of the key advantages of […]

AI Will Take Your Job

AI Will Take Your Job

Scott Olson / Getty Images News via Getty Images Elon Musk, the world’s richest man and founder of SpaceX and Tesla, made an outrageous claim, but one believes strongly. Artificial intelligence (AI) will take everyone’s job eventually. “It’s hard to say exactly what that moment is, but there will come a point where no job is needed,” he said at a conference. Which Jobs Are at Risk?

Whether Musk is wrong is one thing. Whether it is partially wrong is another matter. AI may have already begun to capture low-hanging fruit, which has been described as the job of […]

Employability & education in digital space

The primary purpose of education is to empower graduates for jobs. Hence, the higher the education level, the more the employability should have been the natural outcome. Ironically, the reality is the opposite in less-developed countries. According to media reports, the unemployment rate among educated youths is the highest in Bangladesh. Over the last five years, graduate unemployment has doubled. A similar situation is observed in India and many other less-developed countries. For example, according to media reports, over 80 per cent of engineering graduates in India are failing to get engineering jobs-creating a syndrome of jobless graduates and […]

AI, Automation To Create 4.7 Mn New Tech Jobs In India By 2027: Report

While AI and automation will create new jobs, it would also necessitate reskilling and upskilling of 16.2 Mn workers in India by 2027, as per a report by ServiceNow and Pearson
