We just had a lab meeting a few weeks ago about using AI in ecology. We discussed the use of AI and adherence with scientific norms. We also discussed the ecological impacts of its use. This article would have a been a great additional read! 👇🏻 esajournals.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1002/fe…

Happy to have contributed to this piece, the result of a collaborative effort during the Andina workshop led by @canobarbacil . We hope this analysis on the barriers to ecological research helps drive some real-world impact 🌎 😊

In a new @ESAFrontiers editorial, @UNM professor, Matthew Hurteau, & CWI board member, Scott Stephens, propose a shift towards calculated #risk & outcome-driven #leadership as an institutional philosophy to better manage our future with fire. Read here: bit.ly/4i8ELZu.
