This talk will take us on a whistle-stop tour of the technologies that have shaped our food and agricultural landscapes, punctuated by notable events and key advances. Our latest technology to advance food security comes in the form of Artificial Intelligence (AI). We will explore how AI is used to imagine new food types and its role in shaping sustainable agriculture. Finally, we will look towards a future where food systems must be secured for a growing population in an increasingly uncertain climate and onto extraterrestrial farms.
