Did you know that artificial intelligence (#AI) could help reduce energy consumption from U.S. #buildings by as much as 40% by 2050? According to an article by Building Design+Construction Media, AI could be applied in four key categories to significantly reduce carbon emissions: equipment, occupancy influence, control and operation, and design & construction. As the world undergoes a sustainability transformation and the strategies to reach net zero evolve, Dow will continue to innovate and advance #SustainableBuilding development. Are you applying AI to improve the sustainable impact of your buildings? Let us know in the comments below: https://dow.inc/3ZzYcCK
