Undergirding this growing adoption of AI algorithms and agents are state-of-the-art data cen ters that host thousands of file servers and networking equipment capable of automating key functions. As demand grows\, these centers will be cruci al for the digital economy\, but there remain barriers in terms of their e nergy needs\, workforce shortages\, job impact\, and overall cost.\n\nOn N ovember 13\, the Center for Technology Innovation (CTI) at Brookings will host a webinar to discuss how we can address the mounting challenges posed by the construction and operation of data centers. Brookings Senior Fello ws and CTI scholars Nicol Turner Lee and Darrell West will be joined by Ka te Stoll\, project director of the Center for Scientific Evidence in Publi c Issues at the American Association for the Advancement of Science\, and Michael Blackhurst\, executive director of the Electric Power Research Ins titute at Carnegie Mellon University.\n\nViewers can submit questions to s peakers by emailing events@brookings.edu or on Twitter @BrookingsGov by us ing #FutureOfDataCenters.\n\nAgenda: \nhttps://www.brookings.edu/events/th e-future-of-data-centers/\n\nVirtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/510 764 LOCATION:Virtual: https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/510764 ORGANIZER:baris.kazar@oracle.com SEQUENCE:13 SUMMARY:{AI TALKS WITH TEA/COFFEE #34} FUTURE OF DATACENTERS URL;VALUE=URI:https://events.vtools.ieee.org/m/510764 X-ALT-DESC:Description: <br /><p><a href="https://www.brookings.edu/events/ the-future-of-data-centers/">https://www.brookings.edu/events/the-future-o f-data-centers/</a></p>\n<p><strong>AI is being deployed across numerous s ectors with promises to transform data processing\, communications\, and s ervice delivery.
