SustAIn: Sustainability Index for Artificial Intelligence
Jens Ohlig, Friederike Rohde
Will algorithms solve the problem of climate change? Unlikely. But more data lets us monitor the earth, optimize solar panels, and generally understand problems. But is it sustainable? What about the click workers that do the magic behind shiny AI toys? And don't data centers use a lot of energy, too? Is there a way to measure a sustainability score for automated decision making that won't burn the planet, create a livable society for all humans and still won't make us poor? We're working on it. Let's talk!
