This podcast examines how Artificial Intelligence (AI) can significantly improve our understanding and conservation of biodiversity. It identifies seven major knowledge gaps, known as "shortfalls," which impede effective conservation efforts. The source highlights a review that suggests AI can help bridge five of these shortfalls, although its current application is limited primarily to mapping species distribution and detecting traits. Overcoming the barriers to widespread AI adoption in this field requires addressing issues with data availability and standardization, technological complexities, resource limitations, and fostering better interdisciplinary collaboration. The text also stresses the critical importance of ensuring equity and addressing biases, particularly concerning data from less studied regions and respecting Indigenous knowledge, advocating for responsible AI development through transparency and accountability.
