Ask a Scientist: How can researchers use AI to spot a wildfire?

For over a decade, Google Research has been exploring how we can use artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect early-stage wildfires and model how fires spread. We sat down with a research scientist to understand exactly how it works. For over a decade, Google Research has been exploring how to use artificial intelligence and machine learning to detect wildfires and model how fires spread. Along the way…
