Verdict
While AI can assist with data analysis and certain research tasks, the nuanced fieldwork and critical thinking required in marine biology are less likely to be fully automated. Therefore, the risk of AI substitution is moderate, with many essential aspects of the profession remaining reliant on human expertise.
