Drones are harnessing artificial intelligence to detect sharks approaching Australian beaches. Starting next month, Little Ripper drones will be able to monitor sharks in real-time with approximately 90 percent accuracy. By contrast, humans are only about 20 to 30 percent accurate when spotting sharks. "It's not about replacing human beings all together, it's about assisting human beings to get the work done in a better way with more accuracy," Dr. Nabin Sharma, a research associate at the University of Technology Sydney's School of Software said in an interview with Reuters. "That's what the application is meant for."
