We recently deployed an AI-driven analytics tool to improve our tracking of endangered species in the Amazon. Didn’t expect such a leap forward—our tracking accuracy improved by 12% over three months. This has been a game-changer for our small team.

That’s impressive! Was there a particular AI tool you used? Curious about the integration challenges with existing systems, especially given the remote locations.

Following this closely. How did the local communities react? Often, their support or resistance can make or break such tech projects.

Community engagement was tricky but crucial. We involved local leaders early and offered workshops on how AI helps rather than replaces traditional tracking. This helped gain trust.
