Leveraging the power of AI in support of closing the implementation gap between ocean science and policy action with Towards IPOS

TowardsIPOS is pioneering the integration of Artificial Intelligence (AI) to revolutionize the intersection of ocean science and policy. Through a cutting-edge collaboration, IPOS has developed an AI-powered large language model (LLM) that translates complex scientific data into actionable, policy-driven insights. This innovative tool synthesizes a wide range of information—from peer-reviewed research to indigenous and local knowledge—adapting its recommendations to the specific needs of individual nations. Initial pilot projects showcase its ability to generate tailored, evidence-based strategies that empower policymakers in their quest for sustainable ocean governance. By enhancing credibility, coherence, and responsiveness, this AI-driven approach represents a transformative step toward achieving global ocean sustainability goals.
