Advancements in autonomous robotics and drone implementation are improving industrial processes by removing human error and improving efficiency. What are the latest applications in this exciting technology?
“The blue economy”—economic activities associated with the oceans—represents over $1.5 trillion annually and will double in size to $3.0 trillion by 2030. Oceans absorb greenhouse gases and mitigate the impacts of climate change, determine weather patterns and temperatures, serve seaborne trade, provide critical minerals and are targets for offshore wind, nuclear, oil and gas development and more. And now the blue economy is expanding beyond material goods extraction to knowledge-based activities. What is the future of the blue economy—and why should we care? What is its impact on energy and sustainability? How can we develop the blue economy while ensuring ocean health and sustainability? What is the transition to a knowledge-based blue economy and how can it benefit energy, climate and society as a whole?
How can AI applications be designed for applications in which human safety Is paramount? AI promises to transform critical industries ranging from oil and gas to wind, mobility, medicine, aircraft, mining and more. Yet most forms of AI are a black box, lacking performance guaranties and often failing in unexpected ways. How can we ensure that AI applications will actually work? How will risks be addressed and mitigated in the Age of AI? This Lyceum offers insights from leading experts from Johns Hopkins on technology and assurance on how to understand – and mitigate – risks in critical industrial applications of AI.
