𝐍𝐄𝐖 𝐑𝐄𝐏𝐎𝐑𝐓: We worked with Climate Change AI and Data Innovators to understand Grand Challenge initiatives in AI for climate and nature. Commissioned by the Bezos Earth Fund, this report analyzed 200+ programs to provide an in-depth guide on how to design and run Grand Challenges. It supported the development of BEF's $100-million #AIforClimateandNature Grand Challenge. CODE contributed to this report by conducting interviews with organizers, participants, judges, and other Grand Challenge stakeholders.

I'm thrilled to have served as a reviewer for the Bezos $100 million Earth Fund’s #AIforClimateandNature Grand Challenge. It was inspiring to evaluate innovative AI-driven proposals tackling some of the planet’s most critical environmental issues. I had the opportunity to evaluate groundbreaking proposals that aim to address some of our planet's most pressing issues. these proposals showcased how technology can offer groundbreaking solutions to some of the planet’s most urgent environmental challenges. I can’t wait to see how these innovative ideas develop into real-world solutions. Next up: the top proposals will advance to a multidisciplinary panel, and up to 30 Seed Grantees will be announced this fall. Stay updated at aiforclimateandnature.org. Let’s continue to support the incredible work being done to harness the power of AI for the planet! 🌱🌐 #ClimateAction #ArtificialIntelligence #SustainableInnovation #AIforClimate

The current state of AI companies and their power consumption reminds me of the early days of search when Google had a team working exclusively on shortening response times. This work was for the user's benefit, but it also reduced power consumption by using less compute and directing queries to the closest data center. Hopefully we'll start to hear about climate heroes at AI companies that are working towards lightening the power consumption.
For PNW Climate Week, Hansi Singh, PhD participated in a packed panel event on "Artificial Intelligence: Friend or Foe for the Planet?" at the Georgetown Steam Plant CDA yesterday! The panel discussion covered the intersection of climate and AI: from the power of AI and machine learning in climate intelligence and action, to the perils of AI in driving unsustainable energy use and consumption habits. Moderated by: Jordan Bain Panelists included: Heather Redman Vikram Modgil Sailesh Chutani Jai Jaisimha #PNWClimateWeek #Planette #EnvironmentalForecasting #ClimateRiskMitigation

Yesterday I was able to attend the AI LA Earth Summit, a day of talks and chats about how data and machine learning applications can be applied to the Climate space. There were a few unintended themes: 📊You can only manage what you measure - About half the speakers addressed some kind of major gaps in our understanding. Anupa Asokan in particular highlighted just how little we know about our oceans, even just basic maps. Companies like Joshua Fisher's Hydrosat and the nonprofit Carbon Mapper are relying on satellites with better instruments to get more accurate pictures, for instance. 📍 Problems are big, but solutions are local - You eat a whale one bite at a time, and every climate tech company addresses a fraction of the whole. So the efforts of companies like Nextjet or Bill B.'s Evolectric - CircularEV™ Solutions add up. Central planning probably won't solve our big problems. 🔦 You don't know what you don't know, so find out. - We're walking bundles of unconscious biases, so it's paramount to bring in the voices unlike your own. If you're aiming for a global reach, you need global input. And taking a trip isn't enough - bring in people with lived experience. Cool stuff, good thinking, and I love seeing LA flexing its climate muscles.

Rethinking the Global Superorganism The global economy has evolved into a dynamic, responsive framework that shapes technology, the environment, and society. It's time to federalize data across borders and sectors to unlock a deeper understanding of this planetary-scale "superorganism." Grounded in ecosystemic thinking, speculative design can uncover innovative pathways to overcome data silos. By envisioning alternative scenarios, we can discover new governance models, data-sharing protocols, and emergent technologies like synthetic data to enhance transparency and equity. Ultimately, this approach can help us cultivate planetary intelligence - guiding the evolution of the global superorganism towards a more sustainable, resilient future for all. Who's ready to rethink the economy and data's role in shaping our shared reality? https://lnkd.in/dyWaCvTr #dataFederalization #planetaryIntelligence #speculativeDesign #sustainability #futureofdata

While the global economy has become a planetary-scale "superorganism," our data remains siloed and fragmented. Without federated insights, we're flying blind into the post-stable climate era, unable to comprehend the true state of our interconnected ecosystems. The 1.5°C target is slipping away, yet we lack the integrated data and systemic understanding to chart an effective course. #dataFederalization #climateResilience #ecosystemCollapse #speculativeDesign #planetaryIntelligence
