Event description

Join us for the November GreenDrinks, where Steve Swallow from Datacom will delve deep into some of the hidden societal and environmental impacts of AI. 

AI is rapidly making itself known in almost all aspects of our lives, and in some cases, bringing about huge efficiencies and progression in sectors such as healthcare, that will benefit us all. However, there is no action without consequence, and AI is no exception. Huge quantities of water and energy are being funnelled into AI data centres across the world to keep up with demand, significant impacts are being felt by the creative communities, jobs are at risk and human to human connection is being affected. 

Steve will take us through a balanced look behind the scenes of AI, sharing Datacom's knowledge and expertise on the impacts of both the considered and casual use of AI. 

Thank you to Steve from Datacom, and to our wonderful Green Drinks sponsors, Basestation, Vitality Kitchen and Zeden Cider!
