Mainstreaming high-throughput biodiversity monitoring using AI
AI identification platforms like ARISE can take sensor data automatically to GBIF-published, standardised data for protected-area managers, but training costs are high and human verification still matters.

Responsible and GreenAI: Does our community need Gigantic Data Centers to deliver?
Biodiversity researchers mostly need AI-ready data rather than giant data centres, and AI use should be weighed against its environmental cost.

Literature triage to support Island Biodiversity Monitoring
Classifier-based literature triage matches human curators at a fraction of LLM cost and is worth investing in for recurring curation tasks.
