About this episode
Lily Clements and David Stern discuss the intersection of AI and international development, particularly in low-resource environments. David reflects on the critical, yet often overlooked, role AI could play in aiding smallholder farmers in regions like West Africa. They consider the potential of open-source AI, the ethical issues around commercially driven AI apps, and the significant yet underutilised impact of established AI technologies on international development.
