Looking for validated information about bamboo but don't know who to ask, who to trust, and doubt if ChatGPT is giving you the correct answers?
Then it is time to check out the new World Bamboo Science project =
• Access trusted bamboo science instantly through Dr. Také, your AI Bamboo Science Advisor trained on thousands of curated scientific and industry sources across environmental, technical and social sciences of bamboo, and partially funded by the Asian Development Bank with technology and AI infrastructure developed by QuantumG.
• Discover evidence-based insights on bamboo materials, construction, forestry, bioeconomy, bioenergy, climate adaptation and emerging technologies, grounded in scientific research rather than marketing claims.
• Developed with guidance of World Bamboo Organization scientific and industry experts, World Bamboo Science content helps researchers, businesses, policymakers and innovators make better decisions while addressing greenwashing, misinformation and bamboo skepticism worldwide.
THIS PROTOTYPE IS FREE TO ANYONE WHO LOGS IN! Your interactions are private and your contact information will never be shared. This project has no end-date. We will constantly work to improve the model; however WE NEED YOUR HELP!
The foundation of the system consists of a few fully operational main databases:
• Nutrition, documenting nutrient requirements, fertilization regimes, uptake rates and growth responses from replicated plantation trials across species and regions;
• Construction, with a special focus on Preservation, compiling treatment efficacy, durability testing and long-term performance under varied environmental conditions;
• Plantation management, consisting of a more restricted database, focusing on tissue culture of tropical bamboos, specifically Dendrocalamus asper.
• Carbon Sequestration: Empirical data on carbon sequestration of bamboo.
We will continue to build out more sectors as our team grows and we gain vital feedback from the global community. As you ask questions and receive replies, you can give a Thumbs Up or Thumbs Down depending on your level of satisfaction with Dr. Také's answer. Your feedback is extremely important in training Dr. Také. Please do ask a few questions in order to fill out a Survey Form which further helps us understand what you need from this Bamboo Science Advisor.
THANK YOU.
