Published: 10 October 2023

During a sabbatical year, Prof. Juan Camilo Serpa visited non-governmental organizations (NGOs) in Costa Rica, and found that while they were doing a lot of great work to help animals, they had little access to advanced technologies like data analytics and artificial intelligence. This inspired Serpa to re-focus his research toward the country鈥檚 NGOs, so he could help them implement new technologies that maximize the impact of their efforts. A at 成人VR视频 Desautels builds on this by allowing students to learn about their work and contribute to it, and an information session on the spring 2024 trip will be held on October 27 2023. 鈥淥ne of my favourite projects is using AI for monkey bridges,鈥 said Serpa in an interview with Le Devoir. 鈥淭housands of monkeys get killed on Costa Rica鈥檚 roads every year, and one of the solutions is to build bridges in the forest canopy. AI helps us identify where to build the monkey bridges, so that they will save the most lives.
