AI Vision Model Could Prevent Fatal Encounters Between Humans And Elephants

A new AI system could be used to protect the lives of both humans and elephants. The environmental organization RESOLVE has recently collaborated with the AI developer CVEDIA to engineer an AI that can help prevent encounters between elephants and humans, which sometimes end in the death of one or both parties. For people who live in close proximity to elephants, it isn't uncommon to hear of someone who has died due to an encounter with an elephant or hear of an elephant killed by a human. Although people around the globe are fascinated by elephants, they often raid farm fields and scour small villages for sources of food. This problem has only exacerbated in recent years as traditional elephant food supplies have dwindled and they have been forced to search out alternative food sources.
