Satellite-Based Detection of Looted Archaeological Sites Using Machine Learning
Girmaw Abebe Tadesse, Titien Bartette, Andrew Hassanali +7
Looting at archaeological sites poses a severe risk to cultural heritage, yet monitoring thousands of remote locations remains operationally difficult. We present a scalable and sa…
Media Integrity and Authentication: Status, Directions, and Futures
Jessica Young, Sam Vaughan, Andrew Jenks +9
We provide background on emerging challenges and future directions with media integrity and authentication methods, focusing on distinguishing AI-generated media from authentic con…
Measuring AI Diffusion: A Population-Normalized Metric for Tracking Global AI Usage
Amit Misra, Jane Wang, Scott McCullers +2
Measuring global AI diffusion remains challenging due to a lack of population-normalized, cross-country usage data. We introduce AI User Share, a novel indicator that estimates the…
AI Diffusion in Low Resource Language Countries
Amit Misra, Syed Waqas Zamir, Wassim Hamidouche +2
Artificial intelligence (AI) is diffusing globally at unprecedented speed, but adoption remains uneven. Frontier Large Language Models (LLMs) are known to perform poorly on low-res…
AI-Driven Detection and Analysis of Handwriting on Seized Ivory: A Tool to Uncover Criminal Networks in the Illicit Wildlife Trade
Will Fein, Ryan J. Horwitz, John E. Brown +5
The transnational ivory trade continues to drive the decline of elephant populations across Africa, and trafficking networks remain difficult to disrupt. Tusks seized by law enforc…
How good are humans at detecting AI-generated images? Learnings from an experiment
Thomas Roca, Anthony Cintron Roman, Jehú Torres Vega +5
As AI-powered image generation improves, a key question is how well human beings can differentiate between "real" and AI-generated or modified images. Using data collected from the…
