With Professor Rishad Shafik

In this series of Newcastle University’s ‘From Newcastle’ podcast, we explore the rise of artificial intelligence and how it’s shaping our lives. From creativity and education to ethics and the environment, we’ll be asking big questions about AI and hearing from Newcastle University experts to help us make sense of it all.

In today’s episode, we’re asking ‘Is AI bad for the environment?’. To help us answer that question, we’re joined by our Newcastle University expert Professor Rishad Shafik, Professor of Microelectronic systems, director of the new Microsystems AI Lab, and co-founder of the Newcastle University AI spin-out, Literal Labs.
