Shaping Tomorrow: The Future of GeoAI in Human Geography
摘要
This chapter explores the transformative potential of GeoAI in shaping the future of human geography. It emphasizes the necessity of building inclusive systems that democratize access to GeoAI technologies, ensuring that their benefits are equitably distributed across diverse communities. Addressing ethical dilemmas arising from rapid technological advancements, the chapter advocates for balancing innovation with the protection of individual rights and societal values, highlighting data justice as a core principle. It underscores the importance of breaking down disciplinary silos through cross-disciplinary collaboration, recognizing that complex spatial phenomena require integrated approaches. To promote broader adoption within the discipline, the chapter calls for simplifying complex GeoAI tools to make them accessible to human geographers with varying technical backgrounds. By synthesizing these themes, it outlines a vision for a future where GeoAI advances human geography in an ethically sound, socially equitable, and intellectually enriching manner.
