IBM watsonx’s Post

Loved talking #AI and #sustainability today with Yahoo Finance's Laura Bratton at WebSummit LLC! Takeaways?   🌱AI is both a challenge and an opportunity. It can accelerate important research, enable the energy transition, and help organizations build resiliency against climate risk. It can drive cost-efficient and competitive operations, but it comes with its own environmental challenges that must be managed.  💡Companies can address this at every part of the AI lifecycle: choosing small, well-tuned models; sourcing clean energy; opting for AI-specific infrastructure; and picking high-value use cases; among much else. 🚀 or  📈There is an opportunity to be seized. Launched at Web Summit, our State of Sustainability Readiness report shows that 90% of surveyed organizations believe in the potential of AI to contribute to sustainability outcomes, though more than half (56%) are not yet taking action.   Read IBM’s new report on sustainability and business value in the era of AI here, and let me know if you are at Web Summit or will be at COP29 later this week!
