Microsoft CEO, Satya Nadella shared a video clip on how AI (artificial intelligence) is revolutionising Indian farming by improving the yield of land. Additionally, he mentioned that AI in Indian farming leads to better management of water and minimum chemical usage.

In response to the shared video clip, Elon Musk agreed that artificial intelligence can improve everything. Nadella shared this video clip with the caption ‘“A fantastic example of AI’s impact on agriculture,”.

In the video, Nadella explained how AI aids small farmers to increase their productivity.

“The one example that I wanted to highlight was one of the small farmers who was part of the Baramati Co-op where you can take this powerful technology, and make it have impact where a small landowner is able to improve the yield of their land. And the numbers they shared in terms of reduction in chemicals, improvement in water usage, and ultimately yield was phenomenal’’ he added.

“One of the things it does is sensor fusion. We’ve been talking about it for decades. This is using geospatial data spatial temporal data from drones from satellites from soil all getting connected in real time, and then to apply AI to it and then translate it back into know, asking questions in there vernacular language,”

Highlighting the breakthrough, Nadella stated, “We’ve created an entirely new state of matter, unlocked by a new class of materials— topoconductors-that enable a fundamental leap in computing.”

Responding to this post, Tesla CEO said “More and more breakthroughs with quantum computing..”
