It means having companies and governments that pledge to develop frugal models, more efficient hardware and use cases that take the environment into account. and also to use AI to help with climate change.

The meeting might just go ahead because I've heard from the Rwandan side, the government spokesman has confirmed to me that they will be taking part in that virtual meeting called by the Kenyan president. But we have also heard from the Congolese side that the president, Shisekedi, will not be taking part. We do not know whether he will send a representative yet.

essentially defeated the Congolese army who have surrendered their arms, their grid to be disarmed in Goma. They think now that is more practical, that is more feasible now.
