The MANOLO project, being lead by CeADAR, brings together 18 partner organisations from eight European countries with the aim of developing AI resources to help reduce the amount of energy, memory, and storage required to train and run AI models, and create a framework to reverse the trend of declining user confidence in AI. We were delighted to see the project being recognised in the press over the last week. Well done to the team and all involved.

Idiro Analytics supported my Marie Curie Fellowship award from the very beginning and actively helped me write up my successful application. Their CEO, Aidan Connolly, advocates for AI algorithms that not only optimise performance/accuracy but are also unbiased and efficient from an energy use perspective. As such, Idiro were very supportive of me using my fellowship to advance the auditing of algorithms through model explainability and bias detection whereby simpler, more explainable and energy efficient models could be contrast against more complex but accurate “black box” algorithms. My achievements in the area of advancing Trustworthy AI could not have been realised without Idiro’s support and aligned vision. This made working with them a pleasure and a privilege. Our meetings were always fruitful and constructive. Therefore, I’m delighted that CeADAR has acknowledged Idiro Analytics by presenting them with the 2023 Advancing Trustworthy AI award in recognition of their advocacy and support for my Marie Curie Fellowship success.
