"We cannot solely rely on #AI models…We need to avoid biases due to not updating the models… And we have to keep checks and balances”

- Keegan Pinto, Associate, @ArcternVC

“#AI can be used by old industries to perpetuate their model… We need to be careful about (that).”

- Tyler Hamilton, Senior Director – Clean Technologies @MaRSDD

[Together | Ensemble @TogetherEnsemb]

"#AI is increasing productivity, but the question is what will happen to the people whose jobs are being displaced? What will the first jobs for young people be in the future?"

- Salman Qadir, Associate Principal, Sustainability Venture Fund, BDC

[Together | Ensemble @TogetherEnsemb]

“#AI can help us to better understand carbon capture, fill gaps in our knowledge, and help us prepare for the future, but it does not necessarily reduce the emissions (on its own).”

- Tyler Hamilton, Senior Director – Clean Technologies @MaRSDD

[Together | Ensemble @TogetherEnsemb]

"#AI spreads across all sectors and we are now solving problems in record time with it.”

- Keegan Pinto, Associate, @ArcternVC

[Together | Ensemble @TogetherEnsemb]

“#AI has put a huge strain on the need for electricity… What we are moving towards is a virtual power plant… AI will help us do that.”

- Salman Qadir, Associate Principal, Sustainability Venture Fund, BDC
