Artificial intelligence (AI) is helping to prevent overfishing and thus protect the rapidly declining supply of edible marine animals.

A new project is using AI to improve the identification and measurement of fish species in Africa’s Nile Basin. The software could help scientists understand fish population densities faster than human observers. It’s part of a larger effort to use AI to improve sustainability across a wide range of industries.

“The exciting thing about AI is that it can help us do tasks that would be time-consuming or impossibly complex using traditional methods significantly faster and more efficiently,” Andrew Dunckelman, head of impact and insights at Google.org, the search giant’s charitable arm, told Lifewire in an email interview.

The UN Food and Agriculture Organization is working to improve access to AI technology that monitors fish stocks. More information about fish species could help build algorithms to identify species and their locations, and to recognize any changes.
