🧵 #Opensource operating systems are another key to the continued use of older IT #hardware. They require less memory, place less demand on the hardware due to fewer background processes or are graphically simpler in order to run more efficiently.

What we mean when we talk about using AI for good:

Dryad’s ‘digital nose’ is a sensor that uses #AI to analyse the chemical composition of gases in the air. It detects gases such as #hydrogen and #carbonmonoxide even in very small quantities. 🧵👇

With #ForestFires on the rise, we wrote about Dryad, an innovative start-up who have developed #sensors that ‘smell’ smoke and fire before the flames appear. Could this be the #digital saviour for the future of our forests? 👇

As #Germany plans to invest #billions in a sovereign AI, a critical question arises: are we using #GenAI because it's the right tool, or just to be "modern"?
