This episode takes us from AI identifying birds in the bush and fish in the sea to helping locate destructive Crown-of-thorns starfish in the Great Barrier Reef. We’ll hear a number of examples of how, when combined with the work of scientific researchers and everyday citizen scientists, AI can be used as a tool to assist in animal population monitoring and rehabilitating ecosystems.
Everyday AI is a CSIRO podcast. This episode features Jessie Barry from Cornell University’s Macaulay Library and Merlin Bird ID. We also hear from ichthyologist Mark McGrouther from the Australian Museum and Australasian Fishes project on iNaturalist, and Google’s Megha Malpani who was part of the team behind a computer-vision project to assist in monitoring Crown-of-thorns starfish.
