How researchers are using AI to save rainforest species in Puerto Rico Rainforest Connection (RFCx) and Google.org have harnessed artificial intelligence (AI) technology to monitor and protect endangered species in Puerto Rico's threatened rainforests. The organizations utilized an open-source AI platform called Arbimom to analyze over 7.7 million sound recordings from more than 900 sites, improving knowledge of at-risk species' locations. The AI-driven project, funded by Google.org, deploys "guardians" on tree canopies to capture sounds, connecting to satellite and mobile networks for real-time broadcasting. This innovative approach allows conservationists to study and safeguard species efficiently and could be replicated globally. Rainforests face severe threats from deforestation, climate change, and development. #RainforestConnection #Googleorg #AI #RainforestConservation #PuertoRico #EndangeredSpecies #AIApplications #ConservationTechnology #Biodiversity #EnvironmentalProtection #AIInnovation #TechForGood #WildlifeProtection #RainforestMonitoring #AIResearch #TechNews #EnvironmentalNews
