October 20, 2021
This week, I am joined by Indra den Bakker, CEO & Co-Founder of Overstory, to discuss how his company applies machine learning to satellite imagery to reduce the risk of wildfires and power outages, how his work improves decision-making about the Earth's forests, why utility lines still cause so many wildfires and how AI-driven vegetation management can help, how he applies his love for AI to combat the impacts of climate change, and his advice for young nature-focused tech start-ups.
