Using AI for conservation prompts elucidation of the meaning of conservation. "Exploring hypothetical futures tell us a lot about the concerns of the present. That's science-fiction in a nutshell. Ex Machina, System Shock, and Neuromancer aren't how-to manuals; in their visions of robotic rebellion, they reflect our fears about our own fallibilities. So what happens when we speculate about AI going green instead of going rogue? That tells us something about how the ethical questions that pervade modern conservation, about how we see our role in protecting our remaining wilderness, and about what 'wild' even means."
