Artificial intelligence is emerging as a crucial tool for botanists in their efforts to identify and conserve plant and fungal species facing extinction. New technologies, including AI models capable of identifying subtle plant features, are accelerating the discovery of new species and the analysis of genetic data from historical specimens. This advancement is particularly vital as a significant percentage of known plant species are at risk, and a vast majority of fungal species remain undiscovered. AI
IMPACT AI is becoming an indispensable tool for scientific discovery, accelerating the identification and conservation of biodiversity.
