Abstract

The discipline of micropalaeontology, fundamental in Geology, has witnessed substantial technological advancements in recent decades, aided by the exploitation of Artificial Intelligence (AI) systems to facilitate microfossil identification. This perspective paper explores the transformative role of AI in micropalaeontology, particularly in species identification, and its potential to help with the interpretation of microfossil assemblages. While it is argued that AI cannot fully replicate the expertise of a micropalaeontologist, an abundance of scientific studies shows the promising success of AI becoming adept at accurately identifying microfossil species.
