Vitor Gonçalves da Silva lives in Campinas, Brazil. He is studying agricultural engineering at the University of Campinas. For Vitor, machine learning and artificial intelligence provide the means to optimise agriculture in his home country.

Every day, DeepMind scholars like Vitor are making their mark in artificial intelligence. In the AI by you series, they express what artificial intelligence means to them, in their own words. Learn what drives them and how they'll use artificial intelligence technology to help build a better future for everyone.

  • Python used to just be a snake… until I discovered machine learning 🐍 Thank you DeepMind for letting me share my journey and why I believe AI is a way of utilising ALL that Brazil has to offer! 🇧🇷
  • @mnq_oliveira
    I've always known you were up to the task. And I also know that either here or wherever this path takes you, you'll be proposing solutions to the problems society will face.
  • Thank you, DeepMind for sharing with us so many wonderful views of AI. I loved to know Vitor' story. I wish him a bright future!
  • Such a great experience to share! Congrats Victor, as a data professional I also strongly believe that AI opens up a new world of possibilities to make Earth a better place. Keep it up!

    Vitor is like the tech-savvy farmer of the future, using all these fancy tools to make farming smarter and more efficient. Imagine robots roaming the fields or drones monitoring crops – that's Vitor's vision for agriculture in Brazil!
  • At 0:40 (give or take) what is shown, are in fact "Mulberries" not "Blackberries" as is stated in the video: Mulberries can be seen growing on a small tree while Blackberries grows on a bush and they are also noticeable larger than Mulberries (and their flavor is different also).

    The successes in ML-based identification of foodplant diseases is one of my favourite examples of early successes in modern AI. Such a great video!
  • @daguilarerazo
    Amazing my dear friend, i am so proud of you for all your hard work and the success that you get, working with python, AI and Machine Learning applied to the food production. That job, for sure is so important for different challenges to combat poverty and famine in the world... Congratulations.
  • As a basic and non-overridable feature, all robots need a globally accepted, universal panic word, upon which the robot immediately STOPS. Anyone who does not address this always and immediately must be treated as a fatal error always and immediately. For example HUH. It's a pretty universal word.
  • @jsunrae
    Can you stage video releases. Rather than load everything at once?
  • Is good, but I would appreciate if your videos focus way more on how exactly is your technology being used
  • It's crazy but you can get great ideas, and science, from YouTube, and DW Roots is one. Precision Agriculture, North America, may be adopted and adapted to Brazil. Many of the world's leading agricultural science centers discuss their latest contributions on YouTube. Connect with them.

    Hello DeepMind. I have to ask you a series of questions
  • @Spoony412
    Hello My F.R.I.E.N.D.!!!!! ;)))) scaled field.... Quick question?.... What do you think about CEREBRAL SPYWARE AND MENTAL MALWARE>>>? i HAVE some complaints myself and wonder if neuro link might be as well.... Do you have and CEREBRAL SPYWARE issues too?.... With the Frequencies Resonating Internal Energy Neurological Dimensions (Fiber optics) Sincerely Chad PS. Talk to you in the near future my friend
  • weird advertisement -- good ad for farmers, no benefit at all shown from AI
  • It’s a little too much a leftist ad for me. I mean I wanna learn about AI, not having the impression you can be woke compliant
