Artificial intelligence (AI) is ushering in a remarkable transformation in fisheries research. AI-based systems harness various data sources, including satellite imagery and underwater cameras, to deliver precise estimates of fish populations. Machine learning algorithms come into play, enabling predictions of fish stock dynamics and bolstering the management of sustainable resources. AI's analysis of oceanographic data is instrumental in forecasting climatic patterns, which is crucial for understanding fish distribution and behavior. This predictive capacity may pave the way for the development of early warning systems designed to address climate-related challenges and enhance fishery management. Computer vision and machine learning prove indispensable to streamline the identification of fish species, enhance monitoring processes, improve data collection, and facilitate the enforcement of fishing regulations while minimizing bycatch. AI-powered sensors empower fishermen to selectively target specific species, fostering resource efficiency, reducing waste, and promoting sustainable practices. The use of decision support systems adds value by harnessing AI's capacity to analyze complex datasets, offering insights into fishing trends, market demand, and ecological consequences. These insights can, in turn, inform decisions that are well-informed and conducive to long-term sustainability.

The integration of AI in fisheries brings forth an array of benefits. It promotes sustainable fishing practices through accurate monitoring, averting overfishing, and ensuring the enduring viability of fisheries resources. Real-time data and predictive models optimize resource allocation and catch efficiency, while automation and data analysis alleviate human labor and elevate operational efficiency. AI significantly contributes to the conservation of endangered species and the promotion of ethical fishing practices by minimizing bycatch and protecting vulnerable ecosystems. Simultaneously, AI boosts the profitability of fisheries by curtailing waste, optimizing catch yields, and enhancing marketing strategies. Furthermore, the adoption of AI in fisheries could create new employment opportunities in the tech and AI sectors.

This book highlights the need to address several growing challenges like gathering sizable, high-quality datasets, infrastructure and resources needed to embrace AI technology, ethical considerations, support and education to facilitate broader implementation, and others. It will be invaluable to trainees and trainers, fisheries researchers, practitioners and activists, students (especially undergraduates and postgraduates), civil, private, and public employees and employers, academics, researchers, environmentalists, ecologists, social scientists, agricultural scientists, economists, governmental and non-governmental organization, biodiversity experts, policymakers, conservationists and industries interested in promoting sustainable artificial intelligence adoption.
