Once we peel back some of the layers, the similarities are ever-present.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, Cody chats with Adaptrack CEO <a href=\"https://www.linkedin.com/in/nirajswami/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Niraj Swami</a>, who is also part of the Nature Conservancy with Conservation Technology Strategy &amp; Enablement, about the intersection of health and climate, and how they have parallel models with a common customer — humans.</p><p><br></p><p>“What excited me about climate data was that the planet doesn't lie. You ask somebody how they feel, they’ll tell you no good, so-so, but when you ask the planet how it feels, it gives you a number. That's good stuff for AI, the numbers are good things for AI.”</p><p><br></p><p>Cody and Niraj also talk about AI’s ability to empower scientists so they could accelerate their climate-related work through smart solutions and decision-making support, and the potential collaboration of space tech and climate tech. Don’t miss the pair discussing the mitigation aspect of AI and predicting outcomes in a much more measured and confident fashion.</p><p><br></p><p>Follow Niraj on Twitter <a href=\"https://twitter.com/nswami\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@nswami</a></p><p>Follow Cody on Twitter <a href=\"https://twitter.com/codysimms\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">@codysimms</a></p><p><br></p><p>Listen &amp; subscribe to The Techstars Climate Tech Podcast on <a href=\"https://podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/techstars-climate-tech-podcast/id1555120081\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Apple Podcasts</a>, <a href=\"https://open.spotify.com/show/5nrgZBGhvFEhDXjaYdjI7K?si=xEWmzmIdTlOrq0q_mRmssA\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">Spotify</a>, and <a href=\"https://shows.acast.com/techstars-climate-tech\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\" target=\"_blank\">more</a>.</p>","author_name":"Techstars"}
