The AI for wildlife conservation community has been impacted by recent layoffs in the US public sector; many conservation scientists have reached out to AI practitioners for advice on building AI skills before re-entering the workforce.

I am incredibly excited to see our SpeciesNet model released!! This represents years of work by the @wildlifeinsights.bsky.social AI team (and completely impossible without the amazing Ștefan Istrate's AI development and implementation). Github: github.com/google/camer... Blog: bit.ly/4i5cKBs

So - I've actually led Ebola outbreak response at USAID. This is bunk from Elon. They have laid off most of the experts, they're bankrupting most of the partner orgs, have withdrawn from WHO, and muzzled CDC. What's left is a fig-leaf effort to cover their asses politically.

"We propose an alternative lightweight computer vision method for fish counting based on analyzing echograms" Make everything a computer vision problem 😆 Cool study from @sarameghanbeery.bsky.social et al. Might be more broadly applicable to PAM and acoustic behavior? #prattle 💬 #bioacoustics
