Soon arriving at KTH in Stockholm to participate in the workshop "Systemic enablers for climate-aligned artificial intelligence"!
Glad to hear on the train up that "lagom AI" was already discussed - hope discussions will continue to revolve around sufficiency and other limits-related concepts!
Inspiring lunch chat at RISE Lund with Saba from The Culinary Farm, about community supported agriculture & food resilience!
I agree with Saba - increased food resilience depends on getting more people to work with growing food, vs. sustainability work in front of a screen (which I'm guilty of).
BioDCASE challenge now open! Datasets and code for SIX computational tasks in animal sound: https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2026/ (Do share it to students etc!) #bioacoustics #machinelistening #ai4good #DCASE
Few days left!
Come work with us at University of Copenhagen! We have a fully funded PhD fellowship in Machine Learning for Environmental Sciences.
Submission deadline: April 06, 2026

Att flyget måste minska om vi vill ha en dräglig framtid nämns inte med ett enda ord i artikeln. Hallå DN, vi är på väg ut ur livets korridor och att flyga är bland det mest klimatskadliga en människa kan göra. Borde inte journalistik sätta saker i kontext?
Bild på frukost i restaurangvagnen på tåg mellan Lausanne och Zürich. Kaffe, bröd, smör, croissant, jordgubbsmarmelad, honung. Allt serverat på porslin och med en struken vit duk.
Äter frukost i restaurangvagnen på ett schweiziskt tåg. Kaffe i porslinskopp. Varm croissant i liten metallkorg. Smör. Honung. Jordgubbsmarmelad. Riktiga bestick. Struken duk.
Quadratisch, praktisch, gut! Und miljövänlisch!

#ClimateAI #MachineLearning
We're excited to provide more information about our upcoming annual workshop - The 2026 Nordic Workshop on AI for Climate (climateainordics.com/events/2026-...) - to be held on June 26th, 2026 at University of Copenhagen!
Registration link coming very soon!
We're looking for our next cohort of amazing instructors for #CV4Ecology!!
CV4E is an intensive workshop designed to empower ecologists to efficiently process their existing data, design new studies around CV, and scale their research to larger datasets.
Pleased to announce the BioDCASE Challenge 2026 - the Bioacoustics Data Challenge! Now with 6 different tasks to choose from, each an open-data computational challenge of its own: https://biodcase.github.io/challenge2026/ #machinelistening #BioDCASE #bioacoustics #DCASE #sound
Excited to now have started the SSF-funded doctoral project "ML-Earth: Robust and data-efficient machine learning for Earth observation"!
Looking forward to working with and supervising Issa Tingzon at RISE Research Institutes of Sweden, jointly with Prof. Yifang Ban at KTH, over the coming years.

Hey #AIforConservation folks! If you're heading to the @wildlabs.bsky.social International Conference Technology Conference next week, join us for an informal lunch meetup on Thursday 2/19 at 12:30! We will grab lunch near the conference center and meet up in Clemente Revilla Park!!
Hoppas de har ett Lowtecharena på g snart också!
I better learn the concept of drifting models.
Ursäkta men jävla rasism! Jag står inte ut med det här längre. Varför kan vi inte bara försöka leva tillsammans och bete oss rimligt mot varandra. Vad är det för jäkla samhälle vi har när vår vice statsminister pratar om andra människor som en skinnskallenazist

The first newsletter of 2026 is out 🌎
* Video recordings from the AICC workshop at EurIPS are out!
* Featured paper on ML models for mapping daily global aerosol particle numbers
* Featured member: Assoc. Prof. @timhofmeester.bsky.social at SLU
* New job openings and upcoming events
We have to move all major conferences out of the USA. Nobody wants to get murdered by a militia, ergo no one will attend these conferences. I'm looking at you, CVF...
Recordings of our EurIPS AICC workshop are released!
Watch the talks by Philippe Ciais, Sagar Vaze, Natalie Iwanycki Ahlstrand, Drew Purves, and Mirela Beloiu Schwenke.
Thanks to @climateainordics.com @aicentre.dk and DDSA - Danish Data Science Academy.

Dammit, tech companies. The only think I need to know about your awesome AI feature is how to turn it off.
Our FGVC13 workshop is coming to #CVPR2026!

USA drar sig ur över 60 internationella samfund och samarbetsorgan inkl UNESCO, WHO och UNFCCC.
Det går snabbt utför nu.

We have two open PhD positions at the interface of AI and ecology. Start dates are Sept 2026.
We are looking for candidates with a background in AI/CS, Math, Stats, or Physics that are passionate about solving challenging problems in these domains.
Application deadline is in two weeks.
AI-boomen i USA möjliggör uppstart av sk ”peakers” – gamla kraftanläggningar, ofta utan partikelfilter med låga skorstenar som förorenar och förgiftar lokalbefolkningen. Fattiga områden drabbas hårt.

Rasism styr regeringens agerande. Det är så brutalt tydligt här. Vet att flera redan har påpekat detta men behöver få det sagt även jag. Och fler får gärna säga ifrån, exempelvis oppositionen i riksdagen
