New thinking enters an age-old field. Solving shipping’s AI dilemmas

Dr. Antonis Nikitakis Director of AI Research for our portfolio company DeepSea Technologies recently shared his thoughts on the role of AI as a major ally for shipping companies and the maritime industry as a whole.

Nikitakis argues: “To cement AI’s role as a major ally for shipping companies in their decarbonisation-cost-fuel efficiency efforts, credible researchers working to popularise AI adoption in maritime must pursue rigorous methods of proving the real value of what they’re creating. One way of doing this is to develop robust models, which will be essential in enabling the effective deployment of AI-based technology, and, in turn, reduce the carbon footprint of global supply chains. This will also act as a stamp of approval for all companies working with AI in the shipping industry.”
