“Filipino farmers are more curious than scared about the idea of integrating artificial intelligence (AI) in farming, Aldrin “Soj” R. Gamayon, founder and chief executive officer at AgriConnect PH, said in an interview.
“They’re not really intimidated by it, but there’s still a long way to go,” Mr. Gamayon told BusinessWorld.
The 22-year-old founder added that he anchors the conversation with farmers on their current knowledge of technologies like the Internet.
“When you try to explain that to them like in layman’s term… it becomes a very interesting conversation honestly,” Mr. Gamayon said.
