S06E08 Down to Earth: Help or Hindrance? The Ethics of AI-Driven Geoscience
Description
After covering many of the exciting possibilities and potential challenges of AI in Earth Observation (EO), the question still remains: Is AI in EO going to be more of a help, or a hindrance? The answer lies in whether or not we can use AI ethically. In this episode, we speak with Dr. Caroline Gevaert, Associate Professor at University of Twente and expert in geospatial technologies and artificial intelligence for sustainable development in Low and Lower Middle Income countries. From the potential biases in AI-driven geoscience research to the ownership and privacy concerns surrounding geospatial data, we shed light on the complex questions, challenges and potential solutions that arise when human decision-making meets machine learning.
