Putting the AI in SustAInability
AI is here. And its impact feels both sudden and transformative.
Recent advancements are rapidly reshaping the operating landscape, while unlocking innovative solutions to some of the world’s most pressing environmental and social challenges.
AI has the potential to be transformative. Its ability to optimise processes, analyse vast datasets and provide actionable insights is set to drive significant advancements across industry.
At the same time, the environmental footprint of AI is growing and projected to increase. The energy-intensity of AI functions combined with rising demand for data centre capability and capacity means that we need to be thinking about the role of data, AI and technology enablement in net zero and decarbonisation strategies, while managing for the governance and ethical implications of AI implementation.
This means planning for both how we use AI sustainably and the sustainability of AI.
We hope you can join us for this deep dive into sustainability in the context of rapidly evolving AI technology.
