Introduction by Bart Krull (initiator of SustainaLab and moderator of this meeting)

Arnout Arens (tbc) – researcher of the VPRO Tegenlicht documentary ‘The price of AI’.

Associate professor in Natural Language Processing, Explainable AI and Cognitive Modelling at the UvA Jelle Zuidema will explain what AI is and how it works.

Pepijn de Reus (student AI at the UvA) co-wrote a paper on the energy cost of privacy enhancing data; he will talk about the overall energy issue of AI, combined with privacy questions.

Bit uses AI to help companies become future-proof. Founder Marco van der Werf will explain how AI can be used for a more sustainable world.

There will be plenty of room for sharing your questions and insights. So join us on Thursday 13 July, 1200-1400h (including warm vegetarian buffet lunch at 1330).

SustainaLab is located on Amsterdam Science Park and facilitates cooperation between the scientific community, government bodies and the business sector. In our view, this cooperation will be vital in order to make the sustainable transition that is needed. Therefore, SustainaLab organizes this Tegenlicht Meet Up that deals with the challenges of the energy transition and the role of social innovation.
