That was cool! Thanks @JohnDeere and Julian! — PolitiTweet.org

One of the developments in agriculture right is making planting seeds "intelligent." Sanchez predicts it could help increase yields 20-30% in the next century. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

One important consideration: a lot of these technologies and decisions have to be used on the edge. Agriculture doesn't have great broadband coverage. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

A theme of this week is artificial intelligence is not a solution for everything. "The goal is to use AI in the right situations and in the right sliver of the problem," says Sanchez. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

This precision sprayer can cut down on 90% of herbicides, says Julian Sanchez. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

As Julian talks about precision agriculture, this story is good background reading. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/usihY86Npi — PolitiTweet.org

This smart sprayer also has the potential to cut down on the number of chemicals farmers use to spray our food. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

What's behind Julian is a machine that allows farmers to do plant-by-plant management at scale. It's got AI. It's got computer-vision. It's got connectivity. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

This has to be an #EmTechDigital first. We're interviewing @JohnDeere's director of emerging technology, Julian Sanchez, INSIDE a metal barn. https://t.co/TWPgdFLNPE — PolitiTweet.org

On a daily basis, AI gets us from point A to B, selecting the music we play along the way and - for some - even parking the car when we get there. These next sessions at #EmTechDigital explore the next areas in which AI is going to fundamentally change the way we live. https://t.co/TDzqkpK0Qq — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

This is what we need to do to reimagine AI ethics, says @Abebab. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/niG0MUcFzn — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

.@Abebab just held up a mirror to us and #EmTechDigital. And she's right! We all need to think about how to benefit the most marginalized and vulnerable. That includes us at @techreview. https://t.co/lNHzEvlxht — PolitiTweet.org

The above picture is of Robert Williams. He was falsely identified and arrested because of an algorithm, a story we told in Season 1 of our #InMachinesWeTrust podcast. https://t.co/b4m6B4FfET — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

A common theme is people who are the most vulnerable pay the highest price. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/WE1bnx8e0P — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

Now up is @Abebab. Her talk is about ensuring the algorithms controlling our lives are by design, ethical and equal for all. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/blQiRxwPKK — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

Here's what she says you can do to help AI's hidden labor force. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/5i9lTtbIlA — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

.@saiphcita thinks about how she can repurpose Big Tech labor platforms. She uses web plugins where workers can share tips and advice with each other. On the backend, a machine-learning model she created tries to identify best practices for workers. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/89oGcoxJWl — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

In order to design artificial intelligence for good, we need to understand workers' values and the systematic problems that they're facing. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/OWz4XtOX9a — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

.@saiphcita is now laying out how we can better protect AI's hidden workforce, a topic she also discussed with us in this Q&A. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/DpKfPGCIaT — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

There's a European Commission proposal for artificial intelligence. It's not perfect, but at least it's a start. #EmTechDigital https://t.co/7EXtlnSduF — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

The above principles are an important first step, but not sufficient. They aren’t really designed to calm citizens' concerns more broadly. Businesses require strong, mandated government controls to ensure all companies oblige, says @ReinhardtJu. #EmTechDigital — PolitiTweet.org

MIT Technology Review @techreview

These are questions engineers and product managers should ask when developing artificial intelligence. But... #EmTechDigital https://t.co/y5VBauphNw — PolitiTweet.org
