The International Telecommunication Union (ITU) is organizing a workshop on “Advancing Environmental Efficiency of Emerging Technologies” on 3 May 2022 from 09:30 to 17:00 (CEST).
Hosted by the Austrian Economic Chambers of Vienna and organized by the ITU Focus Group on Environmental Efficiency for Artificial Intelligence (AI) and other Emerging Technologies, (FG-AI4EE) this one-day workshop will bring to light cutting-edge use cases of environmentally efficient and eco-friendly applications of AI and other emerging technologies.
Join us to gain practical knowledge on the environmental impact of digital technologies and innovations to ensure sustainable and responsible AI development. Keynote talks, panel discussions and interactive debates will explore the environmental dimensions of AI and machine learning, 5G, blockchain, cloud computing, intelligent transport systems, extended reality for the metaverse, and digital twins for smart cities.
The workshop also provides an opportunity to influence the pre-standardization work of FG-AI4EE , an open-to-all platform to develop a basis for new ITU standards on environmental efficiency, which will meet on the day following the workshop at the same venue.
Participation is open to all, with online remote participation also on offer.
