Prompted! How GenAI is rewriting Energy, Resources and Us
PROMPTED! HOW GENAI IS REWRITING ENERGY, RESOURCES AND US
Format: Seminar with interactive and debate segments
Duration: 60 minutes
Venue: Expo Halls, Marina Bay Sands (MBS), Singapore
Presented with: CTW, in collaboration with WIMAR
About the Session
Generative AI is moving from hype to hard results—and reshaping how energy and resources are produced, moved, financed, and managed. This fast-paced seminar will unpack the end-to-end “life” of a prompt, connect what’s happening inside data centres to real-world commodities demand, and open a lively conversation about AI’s opportunities and risks for our industry.
You’ll leave with a practical mental model for how GenAI workloads translate into energy usage and infrastructure requirements, plus insights you can apply immediately in trading, operations, supply chain, and decision-making.
What You’ll Experience
Part 1 — Life of a Prompt
What happens after you press Enter: the stages behind the scenes in data centres and their impact on commodities demand (energy usage, infrastructure, etc.).
Part 2 — Interactive Segment
A few surprising facts and a practical exercise—such as a short quiz or mini-competition—to bring the knowledge to life.
Part 3 — Debate
A lively discussion with senior leaders and audience participation on a provocative question: “Bright new AI world—opportunity or societal risk?”
Key Speaker
Michal Polanowski — Head of Generative AI, ST Engineering (Group Technology Office)
Michal builds production-ready AI systems and advises leadership and business units on strategic AI adoption. His focus is turning cutting-edge research into AI-first workflows that solve operational problems and deliver tangible, verifiable ROI. With nearly two decades across big data, data mining, data science, deep learning, and now GenAI, his approach is deeply pragmatic—hands-on, outcomes-driven, and laser-focused on what works.
Who Should Attend
Professionals in commodities trading, operations, logistics, procurement, market analysis, risk, strategy, and technology—from emerging leaders to senior decision-makers. The CTW collaboration opens the door to new commodity actors, while the WIMAR community brings diverse, experienced perspectives—making this a uniquely rich networking and learning opportunity.
Why This Matters
- Operational reality: GenAI adoption is accelerating across scheduling, analytics, documentation, and compliance.
- Physical footprint: AI workloads have direct implications for power consumption, cooling, infrastructure, and upstream materials.
- Risk & governance: The debate tackles the balance between innovation and responsible deployment—critical for leaders stewarding complex supply chains.
