Description

AI and Sustainability: A European View


This IDC Perspective explores the interplay between sustainability and AI in the context of the European regulatory environment. It explores the sustainability of AI through the lens of the EU AI Act. It also looks at AI for sustainability through the standards underpinning the European Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD). Alignment with both regulations is necessary for organizations to truly assess the sustainability of their AI systems."AI has the potential to contribute to many of the UN Sustainability Development Goals. However, companies must ensure their AI systems are inherently sustainable," said to Angela Salmeron, research director, IDC's EMEA Sustainable Strategies and Technologies. "AI systems should include a sustainable impact (AI for Sustainability) as well as undergo a risk assessment (the sustainability of AI)."

How Do Licenses Work?

How Do Licenses Work?

The primary function of a report license is to define how many people within a company are authorized to use the purchased report. This is separate to how a report might be delivered. Unless specifically identified otherwise, the purchase option is Single User. Below is a helpful description of that license, along with a sampling of others most commonly offered.

  • This license allows only one user to have access to and to use/read the report. It is not one user at a time or one user group; it is an individual who will be reading and utilizing the report.

  • This license allows for the entire purchasing company to read and use the report. This is the license level that would allow for a report to be placed on an internal company shared drive for access by all employees of that direct company. This license does not extend to parent or sister company use.

  • This license is designed to allow an entire department within a company full access to a report. The departmental license is a great option for companies that have more than one location and the department is spread out all over the country/world

  • This license is for companies that have one location where they want the report to be accessible by all employees within that physical location.

  • This is the most flexible of the licensing options. Some publishers will allow you to get a license for a preset number of people (typically 5). These licenses are ideal for small work groups.

License options are at the discretion of each publisher. As such, not all licenses indicated above are available for every product. If you are uncertain of the best license for your needs or would like a license that is not proactively available, please contact us and we will be happy to assist.
