How Artificial Intelligence (AI) Is Successfully Used In Fish Management To Prevent Invasive Fish Species
Will Artificial Intelligence Make Any Difference?
I recall watching numerous National Geographic specials at least 20 years ago warning of the depletion of fisheries food stores without intervention. We hardly ever listen; believing things will go on forever without us lifting a finger of care.
Invasive species are a huge threat to biodiversity and ecological health. In fisheries, they can cause economic losses, reduce the availability of preferred species for consumption, and disrupt major food channels.
A recent study has shown that Artificial Intelligence (AI) can be used successfully to identify invasive fish species in images taken from underwater cameras. This groundbreaking technology could help stop invasive species from invading new areas before the problem becomes too widespread.
What Is Artificial Intelligence?
Artificial intelligence is the ability of a computer or machine to mimic human intelligence. It can be used in many different ways, including for identifying invasive species.
