7. AI & Sustainability

Today on Green About Media we discuss some of the possibilities that the current burgeoning AI technology could bring to the table.Things like  AI-guided autonomous vehicles (AVs), distributed energy grids, smart agriculture and food systems and next generation weather and climate prediction are just some of the ways AI is going to impact sustainability in the near future.Also new field of “Climate Informatics” is blossoming that uses AI to fundamentally transform weather forecasting and improve our understanding of the effects of climate change. AI techniques may also help correct biases in models, extract the most relevant data to avoid data degradation, predict extreme events and be used for impacts modelling.https://www.europarl.europa.eu/RegData/etudes/STUD/2021/662906/IPOL_STU(2021)662906_EN.pdfhttps://www.pwc.co.uk/sustainability-climate-change/assets/pdf/how-ai-can-enable-a-sustainable-future.pdfhttps://aiforgood.itu.int/8-ways-ai-can-help-save-the-planet/https://mumbrella.com.au/how-attention-and-sustainability-can-help-brands-reduce-their-carbon-footprint-778810https://www.forbes.com/sites/joshwilson/2022/12/06/artificial-intelligence-machine-learning-and-the-future-of-entertainment/?sh=6a4373cd6de4This episode is brought to you as always by The Digital Distillery.If you would like to get in touch with us you can head to our website or email [email protected] can follow us on:Facebook, Twitter, Instagram & LinkedInWritten, Produced & Engineered by Phil McDowellExecutive Producer: Nadia KoskiProject Lead: Dennis Kirschner
