RETHINKING SUSTAINABLE AI: COST OR SOURCE OF VALUE?

In contemporary narratives, ethics and sustainability are often framed as costs that constrain technological innovation and growth. But is this the full story? This panel explores whether the environmental and social dimensions of AI, when embedded in practice, can generate economic and strategic value. Bringing together experts from different fields and sectors, it examines how sustainability and ethics in AI can become sources of competitive advantage rather than constraints.
