Can AI find the climate solutions human experts have yet to imagine?
In short: In 2016, an AI made a move so unexpected it baffled experts but won the game. This video explores whether a similar creative leap is possible for environmental protection.
Amen Ra Mashar Hubble, director of AI at the Bezos Earth Fund, discusses the potential for artificial intelligence to move beyond human-designed strategies. Just as the famous 'Move 37' in a 2016 Go match appeared nonsensical before proving decisive, Mashariki envisions AI discovering environmental solutions that human experts have not yet conceived.
Recorded on September 24, 2025, the conversation with Manoush Zomorodi examines how AI might provide the creative breakthroughs necessary to tackle the climate crisis.
