Abstract/Summary

We acknowledge the valuable perspectives presented in the letter by Murray et al. in response to our recent publication. They highlight the risk that artificial intelligence (AI) may divide conservation if ecological and field experience do not underpin the design of AI tools, and if AI capacity in the Global South does not develop to avoid further scientific inequities. We agree wholeheartedly with these points and recognise that the task of equitable integration of AI into conservation is beyond the scope of any single group and requires collective action. We take this opportunity to further develop our original discussion, and to elaborate how we think equitable integration of AI into conservation may be achieved and the potential roles of different actors, to enable conservation to be changed, but not divided.
