More researchers are turning to artificial intelligence(AI) to pay
attention to the environment and save endangered animals. Compared
with traditional methods that make the environment bad or require much
time and physical work, AI has the ability to quickly deal with lots of
information.
Animals are disappearing much faster than millions of years ago, with
one million animals endangered. The UN intends to protect at least 30% of
Earth's land and oceans by the end of 2030. “AI is not perfect but could
make important discoveries faster and earlier,” says Nicolas Miailhe,
founder of The Future Society, an organization that wants to better
manage AI. “We need skilled humans to design AI models to check and
collect information. ”
A type of AI model called the CNN has been developed to recognize
bird sounds. The CNN is able to pick out 75 kinds of birds. “Our results
show that AI has the ability to learn about birds in the wild from
sound,” says Muller, the team leader.
Besides paying attention to animals in real time, AI can be used to
make a model of the influence of human activities on the environment and
rebuild historical changes. Researchers have used AI to discover how a
century's environmental change in a river has led to the disappearance of
some animals.
Although human activities have caused the disappearance of some
animals, people are not very clear about which activities have the greatest
influence. “AI will do soon,” says Luisa Orsini, a researcher from the
University of Birmingham.

( D )2. What does the underlined word “intends” in Paragraph 2
mean?
A. Learns. B. Chooses.
C. Refuses. D. Plans.

( D )3. What can we infer from Nicolas Miailhe's words?
A. AI's ability is greater than humans'.
B. AI's ability is perfect for making discoveries.
C. AI's ability is much greater than people imagine.
D. AI's ability cannot be achieved without human support.
