Wildlife Conservation Society

A session on AI and conservation at Wild Things drew passionate presenters and audience members. The session also gave pros (glimpses of help for conservation) and cons (possible incoming machine hell).

By combining robotics, automation, and artificial intelligence (AI), Maryland Engineering researchers and students are building solutions that can help save lives, protect property, and safeguard the environment.

An AI-powered app helping children speak to endangered animals; a tool to use nature to fight climate change; a way to measure forest health; and a method to make decisions to build healthy communities - these four projects are using space data to help nature.

The introduction of AI-powered nudging represents a breakthrough in conservation efforts. Unlike traditional nudges that rely solely on statistical data, LLM-powered nudges integrate AI-generated insi

Species classification and distribution mapping have traditionally relied on isolated data sources such as image recognition or geographic information systems. While these approaches provide useful insights,

A type of Artificial Intelligence that mimics the functioning of the human brain could represent a powerful solution in automatically detecting wildfires, plummeting the time needed to mitigate their devastating effects,

The ever-evolving global challenges have made the need for innovative solutions more evident. Due to their work and experience in developing AI-based

Researchers at Cornell University have developed a machine learning-based method using underwater microphones to estimate North Atlantic Right whale numbers, offering a safer and cost-effective alternative to aerial surveys.
