New TechnologiesNew AI Model Lets Farm Robots Identify Weeds – Then Kill Them With Lasers Posted on March 25, 2026 by Administrator You’ve probably heard about large language models, those sophisticated AI systems that power all chatbots today. Get ready for Large Plant Models (LPMs). Developed by Carbon Robotics, a Seattle-based agricultural technology company, it’s essentially an AI model trained on over 150 million labeled plants for the goal of recognizing basically any weed in any field of the planet. Computer vision is fast emerging as a transformative tech in farming — another startup company recently used the tech in mushroom-picking robots.
