I recently had attended the 9th International Conference on Robot Ethics and Standards (ICRES 2024) and presented my research on "Cybernetic Avatars, Robots, and Sustainability".
The conference provided a valuable platform to engage with experts in the field and share my insights on the potential applications of robotics and AI in addressing global challenges releted to energy, environment, and climate.
Below you may find an abstract of my paper “Cybernetic Avatars, Robots, and SustAInability”:
The growth in Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapid, and every day brings new developments to the world. Apart from all the good that comes from this process, the fast progress in AI is accompanied by threats related to scams, deep fakes, and cybercrimes. These urge the need for a regulatory framework that can tackle AI-related problems. However, the global community cannot solely focus on the safety and security of AI use; another crucial aspect must be taken into account: sustainability. This arises from the fact that while AI has great power in solving problems relevant to Sustainable Development Goals, it can also pose challenges to sustainability itself. Therefore, establishing a framework for green AI, including elements like cybernetic avatars and robots, may be essential. In this context, I call for “sustainAIbility” – sustainable AI that meets the test of sustainability established under the global framework.
