About

This webinar showcases the practical applications of GenAI in catchment science and water, including the integration of data services, water models and AI agents to enable water data science at speed and scale. Emerging research by Dr Neethu Madhukumar highlights how domain experts can supervise specialised AI agents that operate in machine learning–style iterative loops to generate hypotheses, develop new data processing and modelling approaches, and evaluate their performance.

GenAI is evolving at pace. Dr Ashlin Lee shares observations on how individuals and organisations are applying AI tools in their work, including approaches to addressing ethical considerations, fostering socially positive outcomes, and ensuring AI systems deliver genuine value.
