In a new @ScienceMagazine op-ed, @IsmahaneElouafi explains how AI must augment, not replace, human expertise in agriculture 🚀
To succeed, AI must:
• Put farmers at the center
• Partner with scientists
• Build FAIR data systems
• Stress-test tools ⤵️

AI can either bake in old biases or build a more gender equitable future.
Studies show that current AI models often struggle with gender inclusivity.
But @CGIAR believes that when AI is designed intentionally, it becomes a powerful catalyst for women, girls to excel in STEM.🔬👩‍💻
