To celebrate World Pangolin Day, take a glimpse into the secret life of this endangered species - as they wrestle each other and catch a piggyback from mum 😍

We're working with Conservation AI to use AI for detecting species like the giant pangolin. This aids in remote…

The GOAT of tennis Novak Djokovic said: '35 is the new 25.” I say: “60 is the new 35.” AI research has kept me strong and healthy. AI could work wonders for you, too!

New course in partnership with Chroma, Advanced Retrieval for AI!

In this course, you'll dive into advanced techniques that use a large language model (LLM) to get the most relevant context for a Retrieval Augmented Generation system.

AI is not some sort of natural phenomenon that we have no control over.

AI is being built by us, humans.

Hence, if you're scared of AI, what you are actually scared of are your fellow humans.
You probably have doubts about the ability of institutions to do the right things with…

Only a small number of book authors make significant money from book sales.
This seems to suggest that most books should be freely available for download.
The lost revenue for authors would be small, and the benefits to society large by comparison.

A survey of 5,699 published authors, found that in 2022, their median gross pre-tax income from their books was $2,000.

You can generate more revenue than that in less time by mowing lawns in your neighborhood. publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/in…

Fantastic #LJMUResearchDay2023 keynote from Chester Zoo Science Naomi Matthews on use of AI to overcome camera trap challenges for Giant Pangolin conservation. It's great to develop monitoring tech that can be handed over to local communities & reserve rangers for long-term efforts.

Reminds me of my Chester Zoo Science postdoc monitoring Grevy's zebra - how tech and tools have evolved so much since then! Would love to add eDNA to the Pangolin monitoring toolbox 🤞 #ZooConservation

Thanks for having me! #LJMUResearchDay2023

Excited to have our work featured in this special Oryx feature on pangolins!

Our latest issue features a special section on #pangolin conservation! From camera-trap studies to trade analysis, the articles cover research on pangolins in Kenya, Uganda, Cameroon & Nepal. Find the Editorial, Articles, Conservation News & Briefly here: cambridge.org/core/journals/…
