Bill Gates: AI our ability to modify genes will reduce methane emissions by making cows better

Summary
➡ AI can help fight climate change by studying complex things. For instance, it can look at cow genes to find out why some cows produce a lot of harmful gas, while others don’t.

Do you think AI will play a role in climate action? Well, absolutely, because our ability to model complex phenomena, the AI’s are helping a lot with that. So for example, looking at the genetics of cows and saying, hey, some cows emit a lot of methane and some emit very, very little. And some cows survive in hot weather very well and some do not. And then along with our ability to edit genes, one of the most dramatic source of emissions that at one time I wasn’t sure the path forward.
Now we can see either making the cows better or various techniques where they create meat without the cow. .
