Plants can speak using electricity, so this startup built an AI model to decipher their language

Plants send small voltage changes through living tissue when they need water, light or nutrients. A startup screws sensors into the layer under the bark to read those microvolt shifts, sends the readings over a low-power wireless link, and has a cloud model named Bombadil interpret them for about 125 species, so growers can adjust watering.
