Google has developed a new AI tool to help marine biologists better understand coral reef ecosystems and their health, which can aid in conversation efforts.
The project began by inviting the public to listen to reef sounds via the web.
By crowdsourcing this activity, Google was able to create a library of new fish sounds that were used to fine-tune the AI tool, SurfPerch.
Although bird sounds and reef recordings are very different, there were common patterns between bird songs and fish sounds that the model was able to learn from, they found.
The project continues today, as new audio is added to the Calling in Our Corals website, which will help to further train the AI model, Google says.
