“能源和人工智能”是两个非常相关的科学主题的界面上的一个前沿的跨学科研究领域。人工智能是一项快速发展的技术，已经对全球经济和社会产生了深远的影响。能源是一个迫切需要进行重大变革以实现净零过渡的部门，人工智能将在这种过渡中发挥推动作用。来自文献的直接证据表明，研究的异质性意味着不同组织之间的合作和个人特征的多样性，导致更高的生产力，创造力和更大的解决问题的能力[2]。与所有其他科学界一样，为了我们的能源和人工智能领域取得成功，我们需要将平等，多样性和包容性（EDI）嵌入到我们所做的一切中。化学、物理和工程等一些科学学科存在历史性、系统性、结构性失衡和EDI问题。例如，皇家化学学会的《打破障碍》报告揭示了女性在化学科学领域保留和发展的系统性问题，即所谓的“泄漏管道”，并讨论了学术资助结构、学术文化和平衡责任的影响[3]。作为一个新的研究社区，能源和人工智能社区有很大的机会从一开始就做得更好，更与众不同，随着社区的发展，为社区建立一种包容性的文化，并使用包容性的方法进行跨学科研究。在这篇社论中，我们试图讨论EDI在能源和人工智能领域的发展现状，为什么它特别重要，以及我们如何接受EDI原则，以实现全球社会迫切需要的向净零的公正过渡。
“Energy and AI” is a cutting-edge, interdisciplinary research area at the interface of two very relevant scientific topics. AI is a fast-growing technology already showing profound impact to the global economy and society. Energy is a sector where drastic changes are urgently needed for the net zero transition and AI will play the enabling role [1] in such transition. Direct evidence from the literature shows that heterogeneity of the research implying both collaboration between various organisations and diversity of individuals’ characteristics lead to higher productivity, creativity and greater problem-solving ability [2]. Same as all other scientific community, for our field of energy and AI to succeed, we need to embed equality, diversity and inclusion (EDI) into everything we do. A number of scientific disciplines such as chemistry, physics and engineering have historic, systemic, structural imbalance and EDI issues. For example, the Royal Society of Chemistry’s Breaking the Barriers report revealed the systemic issues on women’s retention and progression in the chemical sciences, known as the “leaky pipeline” and discussed the impact of academic funding structures, academic culture and balancing responsibilities [3]. As a new research community, the Energy and AI community has the great opportunity to do things better and differently from the very beginning, build an inclusive culture for the community as it grows and use an inclusive approach to conduct interdisciplinary research. In this Editorial, we try to discuss the current status of EDI development in the Energy and AI community, why it is particularly important and how we can embrace the EDI principles to deliver a just transition towards net zero that is urgently needed by the society globally.
