Title: As Patents Expire, Farmers Plant Generic GMOs

Author: Antonio Regalado

Format: Unabridged

Length: 7 mins

Language: English

Release date: 07-30-15

Publisher's Summary:

Billy Maddox planted 100 acres of Roundup Ready soybeans this year. The big news is he didn't pay Monsanto a dime. It's been 20 years since Monsanto developed its first genetically modified crops. Now some of its early patents are starting to expire, leading to the first "generic GMOs" - off-patent seeds that cost half as much and which farmers are free to save and replant. Maddox, speaking in a Southern drawl as he drove down a road somewhere near Jonesboro, Arkansas, is a seed dealer who works with conventional varieties. This year was the first time he ever sold any GMOs.

The way Hod Lipson describes his Creative Machines Lab captures his ambitions: We are interested in robots that create and are creative. Lipson, an engineering professor at Cornell University (this July hes moving his lab to Columbia University), is one of the worlds leading experts on artificial intelligence and robotics. His research projects provide a peek into the intriguing possibilities of machines and automation, from robots that evolve to ones that assemble themselves out of basic building blocks. (His Cornell colleagues are building robots that can serve as baristas and kitchen help.) A few years ago, Lipson demonstrated an algorithm that explained experimental data by formulating new scientific laws, which were consistent with ones known to be true. He had automated scientific discovery.
