In this thought-provoking final session of ReThink HK, two teams of experts will go head-to-head to debate the transformative role of artificial intelligence (AI) in driving sustainable business practices. Arguing in favour of the motion, the proposition will highlight how AI enables businesses to optimize resource efficiency, reduce waste, and accelerate the transition to net-zero operations through data-driven insights, predictive analytics, and automation. They will showcase real-world examples of AI-powered innovations in energy management, supply chain transparency, and circular economy solutions.
On the opposing side, the opposition will challenge the notion that AI is the most impactful tool, arguing that systemic change, policy frameworks, and human-driven initiatives remain the cornerstone of sustainability strategies. They will also address concerns around AI’s environmental footprint, ethical implications, and accessibility barriers.
Moderated by a leading sustainability thought leader, this dynamic debate will explore the opportunities, limitations, and future of AI in shaping a sustainable economy, leaving the audience with actionable insights and a deeper understanding of this critical issue.
