Las Vegas, June 5 (TIWN) "Iron Man" actor Robert Downey Jr. has announced a new initiative called The Footprint Coalition that would help clean up the planet using advanced technologies like Artificial Intelligence (AI), robotics and nanotechnology.
In a keynote address on Tuesday at Amazon's first-ever AI, robotics and space conference titled "Re:Mars" here, Downey Jr. said the coalition would officially be launched by April 2020.
"Between robotics and nanotechnology, we could clean up the planet significantly, if not totally, in 10 years," Downey told the audience.
According to the actor who has played the character of Tony Stark aka Iron Man for the past 11 years -- the latest being the mega-hit "Avengers: The End Game" -- AI gives him hope to tackle the climate problems.
The actor delivered a 20-minute talk that covered history of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, the evolution of Stark's Iron Man suits, the actual history of AI and its pioneers.
