Guest column: Artificial Intelligence can be our first line of defense in limiting the effects of wildfires

California, like many of the states in our region, has faced some of the most devastating wildfires in recent history. The 'Golden State' is leading the charge in wildfire prevention by integrating cutting-edge technology into its fire management strategies. One of the most significant advancements in this area is the use of AI-trained cameras that monitor the landscape around the clock, identifying fires before any traditional emergency calls are made.

AI offers a solution by continuously monitoring vast areas, analyzing data for early signs of fire, and alerting human operators when potential fires are detected. While the benefits of AI in wildfire detection are evident, it is essential to implement these technologies with appropriate oversight.
