In the Aquaterrestrial Recolonization, we are recording the current state of the surrounding dead coral reefs and feeding AI with that data to visualize a recolonized ocean floor; calculated imaging, restoring the parts of the planet mankind has destroyed. In our project, we are using AI as the planet Earth’s protector from further devastations. We are driven by the idea that maybe it is time to give to another intelligent entity based on logic and calculations rather than greed and carelessness.
