ePlant: Using AI to Speak to Trees... Literally.
Listen now
Description
It's morning, you walk into your backyard, stroll over to the Maple by the fence, and have a conversation about the weather. That, my friends, is exactly how the team at ePlant imagines your day will start, and sooner than you think. On today's episode we sit down with ePlant.bio founder and CEO Graham Hine about the company he's built that allows us to, literally, commune with nature. Combining a custom built sensor that can measure tree growth, precipitation, humidity, and more, with cutting edge AI that leverage large language models, Graham and his team have built a means of bridging the gap between humans and nature through natural, everyday conversation. This was a wild, fascinating, thought provoking and inspiring conversation, hope you'll enjoy it as much as I did.
