Food production in agriculture requires a lot of energy and often has negative effects on the environment. Special sensors based on artificial intelligence (AI) inspired by the human brain could counteract this. Neuroinformatician and DSI Postdoc Chiara de Luca explains how this technology, known as neuromorphic computing, works and how it can help make agriculture more productive and sustainable.
