The discussion centers on leveraging technology, particularly artificial intelligence (AI) and robotics, to scale businesses in the green industry. Reinhart emphasizes the importance of tools like ChatGPT as a "ride-along mentor" and details his company's use of AI for data analytics, robotic lawnmowers, and even experimental exoskeletons to improve efficiency and reduce injuries.
