Saving Elephants with AI

Adrian Spataru, Bohdan Andrusyak — Thu, 16 Mar 2023 14:29:45 +0000

Poaching is a multi-billion dollar illegal industry, and AI is being used to combat it. Techniques such as infrared cameras, game theory, sound analysis, reinforcement learning, drones, and 3D printers are being employed to identify and track animals, detect poachers, disrupt the poaching market, and preserve wildlife. Other solutions such as trap cameras and existing datasets are being used to help with the preservation of wildlife and stop poaching.

This episode was recorded 2 weeks before the war in Ukraine, some things might feel out of context/out of place.
