George Tsavliris, principal of Tsavliris Salvage Group, spoke about geopolitical developments in recent months and expressed concern about their impact on Greek shipping.
“I’m deeply troubled and perplexed by what’s happening around the world. It affects Greece, too, a country that has long been a global shipping power. When leaders and their representatives speak about crises and conflicts in the Strait of Hormuz and the Black Sea, we need to listen carefully and pay even closer attention to what they mean.”
Turning to new technologies and artificial intelligence in shipping, Tsavliris stressed the importance of human judgment.
“I believe in technology, but we shouldn’t dismiss human intuition and judgment. Captains don’t command ships with AI. They rely on their experience, their knowledge, their love of the sea, their intuition, and their leadership skills.”
