A great few days at #esai25 of presenting and meeting colleagues and friends, old and new. Nothing quite like it to fill up my own research bucket and to motivate me dissertation-wise. Meeting Gaston McCarthy was the best. 😊 @dcuioe.bsky.social

We have to discuss environmental implications of AI! Not spoken about enough unfortunately.
We have a duty to inform ourselves and our students of these ethical issues and model good practice.
