While social issues such as the fairness of AI systems have been the focus of much public debate, the direct and indirect adverse environmental impacts (resource and energy use; increases in consumption induced by AI) have received less attention. To address multiple sustainability challenges in software and AI systems development several sustainability frameworks have been developed <a href=\"#2\">[2\u20138]<\/a>. However, these frameworks seem to be known and applied by only a minority of software practitioners. With this workshop we explore several reasons why this might be the case by discussing with the participants:\n<ul>\n \t<li>how sustainability frameworks can work in practice in the context of AI systems development (e.g., how are indirect environmental impacts being measured and what are the system boundaries?),<\/li>\n \t<li>who should be responsible for implementing the suggested frameworks (programmers, managers, researchers?),<\/li>\n \t<li>why frameworks should be used (particularly in the absence of an obligation to do so),<\/li>\n \t<li>how trade-offs between social, environmental and economic goals in frameworks can be addressed.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Objectives of the workshop<\/h2>\nThe objectives of this workshop are:\n<ul>\n \t<li>To connect actors (science, industry, policy) working in the areas of AI and social and environmental sustainability to enable joint learning about \u201csustainable AI\u201d in a transdisciplinary dialogue,<\/li>\n \t<li>To revisit existing frameworks for the development and use of sustainable software and sustainable AI with regards to their comprehensiveness and applicability,<\/li>\n \t<li>To discuss challenges and opportunities related to the practical implementation and inherent trade-offs of frameworks of sustainable AI,<\/li>\n \t<li>To identify next steps for research, joint outputs and possible collaborations across science and practice.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Details<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n \t<li><b>Duration:<\/b> 3 hours<\/li>\n \t<li><b>Number of participants:<\/b> 15-20<\/li>\n \t<li><b>Date:<\/b> either Monday, June 5, or Friday, June 9, 2023.<\/li>\n \t<li><b>Location: <\/b>hybrid at ICT4S 2023 Rennes, France, and online, with a minimum 50 percent in person<\/li>\n \t<li><b>Target group:<\/b> researchers, industry representatives &amp; policy makers working in the broad area of AI (also unrelated to sustainability) OR researchers working in the field of sustainability (in ICT\/AI) OR both, where applicable.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>Convenors<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<li>Stefanie Kunkel (RIFS Potsdam)<\/li>\n<li>Federica Lucivero (Wellcome Centre for Ethics and Humanities, University of Oxford)<\/li>\n<li>Gabrielle Samuel (King\u2019s College London)<\/li>\n<li>Lucas Somavilla (University College London)<\/li>\n<li>Carolyn Ten Holter (Responsible Technology Institute, University of Oxford)<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2>References<\/h2>\n<ul style=\"list-style-type: none\">\n<li id=\"1\">[1] Kar AK, Choudhary SK, Singh VK.
