Our Intelligent Arctic: Vision 2025-2040

My Personal Vision for applications of Artificial Intelligence & Machine Learning Technologies to support the future Management of our Arctic Environment. The Vision takes us forward 15 Years with a brief review of current Scientific AI Arctic Research Projects. The talk suggests that using AI/ML and GenAI we may move towards an interactive Cyber or Digital Arctic Twin by 2040. This could cover themes such as Sea-Ice Prediction, Maritime Arctic Routes, Permafrost, Flora & Flauna, Arctic Industries and Human Settlements. Mention is also made of the importance of securing the valuable Arctic Real-Time Data using Cybersecurity Solutions.
