The world is in crisis: climate catastrophe, environmental destruction, waste of resources. In context with climate protection there are several complex issues that AI can support us. In addition to weather forecasts for energy supply and better planning for less food waste, there are even more possible approaches.
Thomas Brox, Professor for Pattern Recognition and Image Processing at the Institute for Computer Science of the Technical Faculty and member of the BrainLinks-BrainTools Center at the University of Freiburg, presents the technical background of such developments and answers a few questions.
The program was broadcast on January 13, 2023 on ARD in "tagesschau24".
