WildfireVLM: AI-powered Analysis for Early Wildfire Detection and Risk Assessment Using Satellite Imagery

WildfireVLM is an AI framework combining satellite imagery analysis with large language models to detect wildfires and assess disaster risk in real-time. The system uses YOLOv12 for fire detection across Landsat and GOES-16 imagery, then applies multimodal LLMs to generate contextualized risk assessments and response recommendations, with code and datasets publicly available.

From Vulnerable Data Subjects to Vulnerabilizing Data Practices: Navigating the Protection Paradox in AI-Based Analyses of Platformized Lives

This academic paper examines how AI and data science practices can paradoxically increase vulnerability of subjects they aim to protect, using a case study of computer vision analysis of children in monetized YouTube content. The authors develop an ethics protocol identifying four critical decision points—dataset design, operationalization, inference, and dissemination—where technical choices create vulnerabilizing factors including exposure, monetization, narrative fixing, and algorithmic optimization.
