Is AI Sustainable? Risks, Trade-offs and Futures

Digital Catapult: AI and the Future of Sustainability Reporting

I was invited to be a panellist at Digital Catapult’s one-day workshop on AI and the future of sustainability reporting, run as part of Sustainable AI Futures, an AHRC BRAID project led by Bath Spa University with Digital Catapult as a partner. I represented Cronk Advisory on Panel 1, “Is AI sustainable? Risks, trade-offs, and futures”.

The panel was chaired by Jo Lindsay Walton (University of Sussex). Melissa Gregg (University of Bristol) and Loïc Lannelongue (University of Cambridge) were also on it.

This was the first talk I gave for Cronk Advisory and the business was only a few days old at the time!
