Another relevant grand challenge is currently open (co-organized by @UNFCCC TEC): https://t.co/gKdYKqoUhs

[Lynn Kaack @LynnHKaack]

How can one foster research and development in AI for climate and nature? One option is to run a grand challenge. We wrote a report surveying what has worked in past challenges and derived a set of recommendations for future grand challenges.

[Climate Change AI @ClimateChangeAI]

Our new report on Grand Challenge initiatives in AI for climate and nature is fresh off the press! In collaboration with @BezosEarthFund, @odenterprise and @data_innovators, we provide an in-depth guide on how to design such grand challenges. Read here👇https://t.co/bTuI6Bk4Zc

[Karen Hao @_KarenHao]

A big question looms over generative AI: what really is its impact on the environment? I spent months investigating a single campus of Microsoft data centers in the Arizona desert - designated in part for OpenAI - in an attempt to find out. Thread. https://t.co/tY3jFyxCfy

[Lynn Kaack @LynnHKaack]

It was a pleasure to attend the @WWCS_summit with my PhD students @S_K_Kaiser and Josefine Hintz! So many contributions from our AI and Climate Technology Policy Group 🙂 @Hertie_PhD @Hertie_Sustain @Hertie_DSLab
