How AI Helps Fight Wildfires in California


DigitalPath, an AI company, has developed a system powered by NVIDIA GPUs that can detect wildfires in California in real time. The system uses a convolutional neural network trained on NVIDIA GPUs and a network of cameras spread across the state to identify signs of fire, providing timely alerts to first responders.

The initiative, called ALERTCalifornia, aims to prevent catastrophic fires and protect lives and property. The system has already detected two separate fires in Northern California as they ignited, offering invaluable real-time information to local first responders to help keep the fires from spreading.
