"Critterpedia is a collaboration between creators Nic and Murray Scare
and Australia's National Science Agency, CSIRO. It's a machine learning
engine designed to automatically identify different species of spiders
and snakes. An AI-powered algorithm like Critterpedia requires hundreds
of thousands of images to become accurate in its assessments, so CSIRO
and Data 61 are hoping to get as many people as possible to download
Critterpedia and upload pictures of spiders and snakes they might see in
the wild."
