AI & Climate Change - - Adrian Fernando Memorial Lecture 2024
The Adrian Fernando Memorial Lecture explored the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and climate change. Guest lecturer Howard Covington discussed the critical role of AI in the carbon transition and its potential impact on the environment, highlighting its ability to produce accurate and fast weather forecasts, track caribou migration patterns, and forecast weather. Howard Covington also touched on the alarming rate of climate change, its devastating consequences, and the potential impact on the workforce, economy, and society, as well as the concept of silicon-based life and the potential for super intelligent beings to emerge and solve environmental problems.
About Fernando series:
In honouring Adrian Fernando, the goal of this Lecture Series is to foster discussion of the role of business and economics in solving the world’s environmental challenges. The series will primarily, but not exclusively focus on climate change. Speakers will provide insight on this and related topics, allowing the audience to question and contribute to the topic under discussion.
