SUMMARY:AI for a Changing Climate: Shaping Future R&D Opportunities
DESCRIPTION:Accelerating AI for climate adaptation and mitigation in Australia\nCSIRO invites you to a free webinar to explore the findings of the AI for Climate R&D Roadmap\, a discussion starter on how artificial intelligence (AI) can accelerate efforts to adapt to a changing climate and mitigate emissions. The paper focuses on downstream applications of AI in sectors already impacted by climate change\, including infrastructure\, emergency management\, agriculture\, energy\, water\, and healthcare. \nThis session is for government departments\, professionals and researchers working in climate-affected sectors. It will outline emerging and existing AI use cases\, highlight key risks and considerations for using AI safely and responsibly\, and put forward suggested pathways for collaboration. \nYou’ll hear directly from the authors and engage with them during the Q&A segment. \nThe webinar also includes a consultation segment to gather feedback on how Australia can accelerate R&D opportunities for climate-related AI solutions. Your input will help shape future research\, applications for industries\, and partnerships. \nRegister here AI for a Changing Climate: Shaping Future R&D Opportunities
