Together with Tiziana von Witzleben from Heiße Luft and Ben Hardman from EarthRights, we will explore the material foundations of AI. We will discuss the role of rare earth elements in digital infrastructure and the consequences of their extraction, particularly in Myanmar. We will also take a critical look at the rapid expansion of data centers in Germany, their growing demand for energy and water, and the political decisions that increasingly prioritize the growth of AI and digital infrastructure over environmental protection and community concerns.
The webinar will be held in English. Please register by emailing [email protected].
