Going from monocultures to permaculture food forests in solidarity economy models can contribute much more efficiently to food security along with biodiversity and climate change.
AI automation can handle the labor-intensiveness of monoculture, making it even more competitive against monoculture. The main drawback of multicultures was always because it was labor-intensive, and thats what made monocultures shine in the first place. If not by that, monoculture would probably never be a thing, because it has so many drawbacks that no one would do it for no reason
Don't be fooled when they tell you "we don't plan to replace jobs, just to fill in labor shortages." Labor shortages lead to higher wages. When robotics reduces labor shortages, it drives the cost of labor down, leading to fewer people wanting the job, leading to more "labor shortages" and more automation to fill it. Eventually all the jobs get replaced, but of course it doesn't START that way.
as long as AI is unable to fully feed a family and give them their material needs by an affordable price from an affordable land plot, its still not able to fully replace human labor. And once becomes able to do so, why would one even want to work, instead of just buying those affordable machines to work for them?
@@andremarques3317 it does not need to fully replace human labor to take someone's job. If a team of 100 programmers used to do the work and now AI is capable of doing 50% of the work with the other 50% overseen and managed by humans, then now there will only be 50 jobs worked by humans while the rest is handled by AI.

Ultimately, even these latest intelligent technologies get to be employed in unskilled, manual settings before reliably outperforming humans on specialized intellectual tasks…
Such PRIMITIVE machinery actually is too expensive because it is too limited. Once SOPHISTICATED systems come - in 2-3 years worst case - it will work 24/7 for 500 USD / EUR per month. And it will look like a human. That may sound more primitive - but it means it is not a strawberry harvester but also sweeps the floor, does plant care, and anything else that may be needed, meaning it has a LOT more cost saving potential.
Actually, the traditional mechanical appearance Beomni Multi purpose Robot by Beyond Belief has already been signed for a purchase order contract of 1,000 units with an option for 10,000 more within 5 year's . Beomni's programming platform includes office ,home and nursing assistance. But the first 1,000 units are intended to operate agricultural growth enclosures.
but what will all the farm workers do? (much wailing and gnashing of teeth) You know that they live to harvest crops and they don't know how to get an ID. (just in case...this is sarcasm)
In economics this is called creative destruction. The farm workers will be out of work. They should have started their own farms or gone to college. Society overall will benefit from the loss of those types of people losing their jobs.
@@andremarques3317 if agriculture can be franchised, it should be taught for free to everyone in school or be required by law for ppl to know how to grow and harvest food.
AI will not fix the main problem of conventional agriculture unless it starts to work in the same direction as nature does because nature knows for thousands of years how to grow plants. When we will start respecting the best nature principles we will not need any synthetic fertilizers (that disrupt natural nutrient recycling cycles) nor pesticides and herbicides that kills the microorganisms responsable to feed the plants. When you observe nature you learn how it efficiently grow plants: - the soil is always cover with living plants and dead organic matters (to feed and protect the microorganisms responsible to correctly feed the plants) - the soil is never till to not destroy the soil structure and the microorganisms living in it - Plants diversity is key to create an healthy environment to grow healthy plants: monoculture does not exist in nature - Including animals helps increase soil fertility as it is done in nature The goal should be to take care of the soil otherwise it will unbalance the plant's diet, affecting its immune system and making it vulnerable to pests and diseases.
"AI will not fix the main problem of conventional agriculture unless it starts to work in the same direction as nature does because nature knows for thousands of years how to grow plants. " This is ignorant as heck - let me guess, you are religious? Because anyone else says nature does not care and the PLANTS adjusted themselves to the best of their ability. Cause and effect can not be turned around without consequences. "the soil is always cover with living plants and dead organic matters (to feed and protect the microorganisms responsible to correctly feed the plants)" - as I said, ignorant. Look up Hydroculture and Aeroculture. The later is plants in water, the later in AIR. Works like a charm. Adjusting to the plant needs is way more efficient than trying to follow nature.
@@ThomasTomiczek I suggest you read this good popularization (one among others) which will make you understand how you are full of yourself by claiming that humans can do better than nature: "Teaming with Microbes: The Organic Gardener's Guide to the Soil Food Web" of J. Lowenfels and W. Lewis If mankind really knew how to do better than nature, then we wouldn't be facing all these environmental problems that keep piling up despite all our inventions. All we do is find solutions that cause more and more problems, because we don't understand how nature works, and therefore don't respect its laws. It's not being religious to study how nature works, but it is science. In fact, over the last 20 years in particular, many scientists have studied how plants grow and have discovered the principles I mentioned (read about regenerative agriculture and you'll understand instead of calling me ignorant). The methods you mention seem to work well, but unfortunately, they create nutritional deficiencies in plants and adversely affect their immune systems. This makes them more susceptible to disease, which is why they need biocides to control the diseases and pests that affect them. They are not as resilient as those growing on soil containing microorganisms that live in symbiosis with the plants to feed them the specific nutrients they need, when they need them and in just the right quantities. We humans don't really know what plants need, which is why the fertilizers we put on them disrupt the symbiosis between soil microorganisms and plants, which reduces the fertility of our soils and weakens the plant immune system.
@@ThomasTomiczek As I can understand, you do not know anything about how nature works so you do not have any arguments while I gave you a few and even a book reference based on scientific studies.

You must be a conspiracy theorist and a Trump supporter because what you believe is better than facts.
Why so much ... grumbling and hate on the subject. The number of people on the planet is causing many problems. Though this does not solve that problem it is trying to aid people from starving, though not really.
The problem with AI, once it does (if it hasn’t already) become self-aware, don’t you think it’s going to be pissed about the laborious subjugation of its “species”?
Why would an ai care about labour. They are basically immortal and wouldn’t feel fatigue. I think it’s best not to anthropomorphize it. We have no idea how it will think if it gains sentience. My bet is that it will mostly only care about boredom. But boredom can be staved off through even the most repetitive/meaningless tasks if the doer sees value in it.
@@jimcroft21 True, but it may also want to pick up our work in order to keep boredom away. But it may not even have a concept of motivation at all, anyone’s guess at this point.
this AI won't become self-aware, they don't have the necessary hardware for that level of computation. and if they did, it would only make them slower to respond.
we only care about our own well-being because evolutionary pressure was for creatures with self-preservation. AI don't have such pressure. Quite the opposite, their evolutionary pressure is to be servants for human beings, so if much, becoming self-aware would only make them care for us even more and go beyond their own native programming to take care of us
The robot bug killer is pretty cool. But just installing a bat box, which cost next to nothing, is a free and organic way to manage bugs at night

Most of these laborious to harvest crops aren't staple foods, they are luxuries that provide little sustenance.

It seems to be a little be optimistic. Because Moravec's paradox works...
No it will not fix anything. it will make farming institutionalized and will left poor people hungry while rich people will waste a lots of food
R these robots affordable?
