🎤 This week I’ll participate at ALL IN 2025, Canada’s largest AI event!

I’ll be in the panel: AI and Climate Change: Can AI Help Solve the Planet’s Biggest Challenges?

I hope it will be a good opportunity to discuss the impacts and opportunities of AI on Climate.

I'm attending the Climate Mis/Disinformation Summit at @uottawa.ca. The keynote by @katharinehayhoe.com was wonderful and the various panels are super interesting!

I'll add my humble two cents this afternoon in the panel on Digital Platforms, AI and the Climate Information Environment.

Like every September, it's nonsense time in Montreal, as the city dismantles the summer pedestrian streets and cars start to fill them and pollute them again, replacing people and life.

I can't wrap my head around why after managing to arrange all the logistics we have to go back to car nonsense...

I'm looking for PhD and MSc students for Fall 2025, at Mila and the Université de Montréal.

Topics: machine learning for science, details in 🧵

I especially encourage applicants from under-represented groups and regions in conflict (Palestine, Ukraine, Sudan, Myanmar...)

See 🧵 for how to apply.

Really cool to see a paper on this topic! I can't agree more with the messages.

In our Counting Carbon paper, also with @sashamtl.bsky.social, we also observed little correlation between energy used by models and performance.
