Artificial intelligence (AI) is playing a huge role in the future of at-home cannabis growing systems, making it easier and more affordable for anyone to grow pot at home with ease. This episode, host Brit Smith and production manager Jen Hayes visit Boston-based company Boundless Robotics to meet the team behind the Annaboto; a new cannabis-growing robot that looks like a household lamp and uses AI to monitor every aspect of marijuana plant growth until it's time to harvest, and the winner of Boston University's 5th annual cannabis start-up competition.

Boundless Robotics CEO Carl Palme explains how the Annaboto was first developed, how the machines are made, and how the AI works to track and grow hydroponic cannabis with the help of an app on the user's phone. Then, Brit and Jen each take home an Annaboto machine to see what it's like to grow marijuana using artificial intelligence, and report back on the experience. Find out more at annaboto.com.
