In 2021, Carbon Robotics unveiled the third-generation of its Autonomous Weeder, a smart farming robot that identifies weeds and then destroys them with high-power lasers. The company now has taken the technology from that robot and built a pull-behind LaserWeeder — and it kills twice as many weeds.
The weedkiller challenge: Weeds compete with plants for space, sunlight, and soil nutrients. They can also make it easier for insect pests to harm crops, so weed control is a top concern for farmers.

Metas Toolformer is designed to learn to use tools independently, outperforming larger language models in certain downstream tasks.
Natural Language is the programming language of the brain, wrote science fiction author Neal Stephenson in his 1992 novel Snow Crash. Recent advances in machine processing of natural language show that language can also be the programming language of machines – as they get better at understanding it.
With “Toolformer”, Meta wants to extend this principle to the use of tools.
Despite the VC gold rush, this expert is arguing that hype — as opposed to firm data and proven results — is in the generative AI industry driving seat.

The artificial intelligence-assisted components are lighter and can handle higher structural loads than human-designed components, according to the agency.
Researchers from UNSW Sydney have analyzed millions of satellite photos to observe changes in beaches across the Pacific Ocean. The findings, published in Nature Geoscience today (Feb. 10), reveal for the first time how coastlines respond to different phases of the El-Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) cycle.
ENSO is a natural climate phenomenon that causes variations in sea surface temperatures over the Pacific Ocean. The warming phase, known as El Niño, and the cooling phase, known as La Niña, affect weather patterns across different coastlines depending on the cycle.
