Artificial intelligence and the environment
- Artificial intelligence (AI) can create new knowledge by analyzing large amounts of data, by recognizing patterns in the data sets via machine learning to create new knowledge about ecosystems. In addition, environmental balances can be created in the process, which can be used as a basis for decision-making. Due to the large amounts of data, complex feedback mechanisms can be balanced and the costs of decisions can be made transparent. Despite these opportunities for resource-saving handling of nature, AI balancing should not be allowed to become an automatic decision-making process. For sustainable environmental action, an emotional connection to the environment is also important. This cannot be achieved by AI, here it is the task of natural intelligence to recognize its embedding in a larger natural context and to develop from it a lifestyle in an environmental virtue ethics perspective.
