Research Statement:
Project with the local Shoshone-Bannock Tribes to co-create knowledge about water and energy system resilience in Idaho, focusing on the Snake River Basin. By learning about Indigenous governance and traditional knowledge systems alongside advanced AI and 3D modeling technology, the project aims to imagine sustainable water management strategies and foster workforce development between the digital arts and environmental sciences.
Research Impact:
As a whole the research done has uncovered that AI Data Centers were built so that they could have immediate use rather than sustainability in mind. Even backed by the fact that the Idaho Legislature is not concerned about the usage of water, just they can be the dominating force behind AI advancement.
