Antarctic sea-ice at 'mind-blowing low' alarms experts

The scientific articles I have read say that the thickness of the ice on the eastern half of Antarctica is increasing (they're blaming 27 active volcanos under the ice on the western half for the reduction in ice there, but it's less than the gain on the eastern half).

Before the AI can get to work, it has to be told what to do and that takes artistic talent as opposed to an artificial hand-eye coordination.

Have the current crop of artists take Technical Writing classes to learn how to express themselves accurately (Creative Writing would sway into metaphor and that has too much potential to confuse an AI).

You're right that most deep learning models currently require a really large training dataset before they can be even 80% accurate. However, not all that data needs artists. It requires scientists and other humans as well.

If you want to build an AI that can monitor satellite imagery over poles, you will need datasets made by scientists who have correctly (and also incorrectly) identified ice depth at a specific region.
