Show notes

The 2008 film Wall-E explores the connection between technology, artificial intelligence, and sustainability. With the continued rise of AI, we wanted to understand the intersections between sustainability and technology--and whether we are heading to a Wall-E future. Hosts Britta Wellenstein and Rory Tevlin talk to Data Science Institute Director Kyle Cramner about how AI can be used to enhance the UW–Madison sustainability goals. We then turn to Kaiping Chen, assistant professor in the department of Life Sciences Communications, to discuss humans' relationship with technology and her recent research into chat bots. Learn more about the RISE-AI. Learn more about Dr. Chen’s research paper.
