The scope of the Advisory Board is to maintain an accurate body of knowledge on AI in CCAM operations, enabling the continuous consideration and analysis of ethical aspects and also facilitating interactions with relevant associations and policy-makers.

Especially, the ESAB provided recommendations of three specific questions raised by the CT:
- How can we maximize AI4CCAM impacts (Scientific, Societal, Industrial)?

A follow-up progress report is expected on these and other questions that were raised by the ESAB members.
