What we — and AI — can learn from nature's intelligence

This TED Radio Hour explores the deep intelligence embedded in the natural world—from animal communication and insect behavior to plant anatomy and our own immune system. Four TED speakers share insights on how studying nature's systems can inform and inspire the development of artificial intelligence. The episode highlights the ingenuity of biological processes and what they reveal about the foundations of intelligence. It is dedicated to environmental researcher Karen Bakker, who passed away shortly after delivering her TED Talk.
