In the race to net zero emissions, investment, commitment, and collaboration will be key to success. The IEA (Intl. Energy Agency) reports in order to reach net zero emissions by 2050, annual clean energy investment worldwide will need to triple to reach about $4 trillion by 2030. In fact, IEA says what’s happened up to this point is simply not good enough, considering CO2 emissions have increased significantly (by 60%) since the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change in the early 1990s. Achieving net zero emissions by 2050, therefore, will require “nothing short of the complete transformation of the global…

Deep learning, a subset of machine learning, simulates a human brain by taking in large amounts of data and attempting to learn from it. In IBM’s definition of the term, deep learning enables systems to “cluster data and make predictions with incredible accuracy.” However, as incredible as deep learning is, IBM poignantly notes it can’t touch the human brain’s ability to process and learn from information. Deep learning and DNNs (deep neural networks) are being applied to solve complex problems in the real world, like weather prediction, facial recognition, and chatbots, plus perform other types of complex data analysis. Allied…
