We are releasing for beta testing our new AI that combines multiple AIs and third-party tools and datasets, such as weather forecasts and soil data to give more specific answers. We are actively evaluating multiple AI models for accuracy, relevance and cost, and we update the PlantVillage AI as we discover better models. We would love your feedback.
