The question "Can AI save nature?" is seductive. Behind this is another urgent question: Do we actually understand nature well enough in tourism to know what we're asking technology to save? In this opening keynote, author and biodiversity expert, Dr. Frauke Fischer, explores a deceptively simple question: What is biodiversity? The living foundation upon which everything—including tourism—depends. The keynote then examines what artificial intelligence can genuinely help tourism see about the natural systems it is embedded in—and what it cannot replace: the human capacity to care, to choose restraint, and to participate in regeneration. This session grounds your entire day.
