Todd explains how strategic foresight, artificial intelligence, and automation can help livestock systems manage uncertainty—if they are applied with discipline and clarity. The discussion moves beyond hype to focus on where technology is actually delivering value today, how AI can support better decisions rather than replace people, and why the future of livestock production will be shaped by those who can think long-term in an increasingly complex environment. MEET THE GUEST Todd Thurman is an international swine management consultant and the Founder & CEO of Swine Insights International. With over 25 years of global pork industry experience, Todd works with producers and organizations worldwide to translate complex market, biological, and technological challenges into actionable strategy. As a Strategic Foresight Practitioner and Demographic Analyst, Todd helps industry leaders anticipate change rather than react to it, bringing long-term thinking to a sector often dominated by short-term cycles.
