As the rapid growth of AI is putting unprecedented demands on computing power and energy use, scientists are focusing their research efforts on developing ultra-fast, energy efficient computing capabilities. We invite you to share your perspectives on the societal and ethical dimensions, both now and in the future, of exploring the expansion of high-power AI. What does our future look like when we have energy-efficient computing power that can meet the needs of this rapidly advancing industry?

Imagine a world where AI no longer strains the planet’s resources, where lightning-fast, energy-efficient computing powers breakthroughs across science, medicine, and creativity. The technology itself is extraordinary — but the real story lies in how it reshapes our lives. What new possibilities open when access to such power is widespread? How do we ensure it serves communities rather than divides them? From tackling climate change to redefining work and knowledge, the choices we make today will echo into tomorrow. As ultra-fast, sustainable computing becomes reality, the question isn’t just what AI can do — it’s how we, as a society, choose to use it.
