Title: President's Page: Digital twins in the era of generative AI
The industry is experiencing significant changes due to artificial intelligence (AI) and the challenges of the energy transition. While some view these changes as threats, recent advances in AI offer unique opportunities, especially in the context of “digital twins” for subsurface monitoring and control.  more » « less

    Abstract Although Artificial Intelligence (AI) projects are common and desired by many institutions and research teams, there are still relatively few success stories of AI in practical use for the Earth science community. Many AI practitioners in Earth science are trapped in the prototyping stage and their results have not yet been adopted by users. Many scientists are still hesitating to use AI in their research routine. This paper aims to capture the landscape of AI-powered geospatial data sciences by discussing the current and upcoming needs of the Earth and environmental community, such as what practical AI should look like, how to realize practical AI based on the current technical and data restrictions, and the expected outcome of AI projects and their long-term benefits and problems. This paper also discusses unavoidable changes in the near future concerning AI, such as the fast evolution of AI foundation models and AI laws, and how the Earth and environmental community should adapt to these changes. This paper provides an important reference to the geospatial data science community to adjust their research road maps, find best practices, boost the FAIRness (Findable, Accessible, Interoperable, and Reusable) aspects of AI research, and reasonably allocate human and computational resources to increase the practicality and efficiency of Earth AI research.

    The field of Artificial Intelligence (AI) is rapidly advancing, with significant potential to transform society. However, it faces a notable challenge: lack of diversity, a longstanding issue in STEM fields. In this context, this position paper examines the intersection of AI and identity as a pathway to understanding biases, inequalities, and ethical considerations in AI development and deployment. We present a multifaceted definition of AI identity, which encompasses its creators, applications, and their broader impacts. Understanding AI's identity involves analyzing the diverse individuals involved in AI's development, the technologies produced, and the social, ethical, and psychological implications. After exploring the AI identity ecosystem and its societal dynamics, We propose a framework that highlights the need for diversity in AI across three dimensions: Creators, Creations, and Consequences through the lens of identity. This paper presents a research framework for examining the implications and changes needed to foster a more inclusive and responsible AI ecosystem through the lens of identity.

    Rapid advancements in artificial intelligence (AI) necessitate changes in what AI content is taught to K-12 students. These changes will ensure that students are prepared to be smart consumers and competent creators of AI, as well as informed citizens. To meet this need, CSTA, in partnership with AI4K12, spearheaded the Identifying AI Priorities for All K-12 Students project. The project gathered experts – including teachers, researchers, administrators, and curriculum developers – to articulate priorities for AI education. This report summarizes the result of that effort.

    Abstract This paper explores the evolution of Geodesign in addressing spatial and environmental challenges from its early foundations to the recent integration of artificial intelligence (AI). AI enhances existing Geodesign methods by automating spatial data analysis, improving land use classification, refining heat island effect assessment, optimizing energy use, facilitating green infrastructure planning, and generating design scenarios. Despite the transformative potential of AI in Geodesign, challenges related to data quality, model interpretability, and ethical concerns such as privacy and bias persist. This paper highlights case studies that demonstrate the application of AI in Geodesign, offering insights into its role in understanding existing systems and designing future changes. The paper concludes by advocating for the responsible and transparent integration of AI to ensure equitable and effective Geodesign outcomes.

    Artificial intelligence (AI) has impacted human life at many levels, entailing economic and societal changes. AI algorithms are increasingly used by organizations to generate predictions that feed into decisions (e.g., who is eligible for insurance coverage, approved for bank loans, selected for job interviews). Since the data used for developing the algorithms can contain bias such as gender or racial prejudice, AI predictions can become discriminatory. For-profit and not-for-profit organizations face the hurdles of developing, applying, and maintaining governance of AI, making sure that goal optimization responds to ethical and fairness values.
