Tackling climate change through AI

Welcome to the Oslo AI event on February 28th, focusing on Tackling climate change through AI!

Join us at EGGS for a free in-person gathering that includes food, mingling, talks and a panel debate with speakers from Sopra Steria, Cheffelo and SINTEF.

Artificial intelligence is a rapidly evolving technology that has the potential to revolutionize the way we approach environmental challenges. By leveraging machine learning algorithms and big data analytics, AI can help us optimize energy consumption, reduce waste, and mitigate the effects of climate change.

In this event, we will explore some of the ways in which AI is being used to improve the environment, including monitoring deforestation, reducing food waste and green shift. We will also discuss some of the challenges and limitations of AI, as well as its future potential to help us build a more sustainable world

We will be hearing from these speakers:

• Thea Våge, Data Engineer at Sopra Steria
• Paul Tenfjord, Manager Business Analytics at Sopra Steria
• Stephen Allwright, Head of Data & Analytics at Cheffelo
• Filippo Remonato, Research Scientist in Artificial Intelligence and Machine Learning at SINTEF
