Growing food is very complex, probably too complex for our brains. And I believe we will have to learn again how to grow food without our current support systems one day. I'm building projectcanopi.com toward that goal.

Can you expand on this?

I'm no expert, and I fully agree that growing food at scale can be difficult. It also requires a lot of space.

But what do you mean by saying it's "too complex for our brains"?

You've AI generated an application. How are you executing your mission statement?

So you read an entry-level college syllabus on farming and decided that makes you an expert on regenerative farming techniques?

That's some hubris you got there.

There are millions of farmers around the world that use traditional/regenerative farming techniques because they don't have access to the "current support systems" that make modern farming possible, and thousand in the U.S. and Europe that do so because they can.

And worse...you couldn't actually be bothered to build the website yourself so you outsourced it to an AI....
