How AI Is catching Marine Wildlife Traffickers and Also Making Tax Easi

AI takes on marine wildlife traffickersWildlife trafficking doesn't just involve rhino horn and elephant ivory. Marine species such as shark fins, seahorses and sea cucumbers are also smuggled around the world, threatening vulnerable ecosystems. Researchers in Australia have developed an AI system that can identify these species in CT scans of luggage and parcels. We speak to Dr Vanessa Pirotta about how the technology works and how it could help customs officers detect illegal shipments. Can AI become every small business owner's accounting assistant? Many small businesses struggle to afford professional accounting support, while new tax reporting requirements are increasing administrative workloads. At the same time, the accounting sector is facing a shortage of experienced professionals. We hear from WiseMind AI, a startup using artificial intelligence and official tax guidance to help business owners get quick answers to bookkeeping, VAT and compliance questions.The programme is presenter by Ania Lichtarowicz.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/somewhere-on-earth-the-global-tech-podcast--6924871/support.Production manager: Liz TuohyEditor: Ania Lichtarowicz  Somewhere on Earth Productions UK Ltd.
