PyTorch Conference 2024

Artificial Intelligence (AI) has the potential to revolutionize various sectors, including environmental conservation and water management. However, the deployment of AI technologies raises ethical questions about the environmental impact, particularly water resources. This presentation will discuss the ethical implications of AI concerning water while also exploring how AI can both positively and negatively affect water resources along with the broader ecosystem. My goal is to facilitate a critical conversation around how to balance technological advancements with environmental stewardship. Objectives: Understanding Ethical Implications: Provide an in depth overview of how AI impacts water resources. Focus on ethical concerns related to AI's water footprint, including, but not limited to energy consumption and water usage in data centers. Explore Positive Applications: Talk about the possible successful implementations of AI in water conservation, pollution monitoring, and efficient resource management. Discuss potential future applications where AI could contribute to sustainable water management and connect stakeholders to address ethical concerns and solutions.
