Artificial Intelligence (AI) is projected to significantly increase energy consumption in data centers, as highlighted in a report by @IEA. The report emphasizes the potential of renewable energy and energy-efficient processors to mitigate the environmental impact. Innovators are urged to strategically apply AI in critical sectors such as food, power, and transportation to address carbon emissions and combat climate change. The discussion on AI regulation and its role in fighting climate change was held during a visit by Michelle Donelan, Secretary of State for @SciTechgovuk, at @Mila_Quebec. While AI offers benefits, there are concerns about its substantial energy demands. The introduction of the Artificial Intelligence Environmental Impacts Act of 2024 aims to measure and shape AI's effects on the environment, underscoring the need for decisive action to align AI usage with climate change goals.
Decisive action is needed to align the use of AI with climate change goals. Super excited for the introduction of the Artificial Intelligence Environmental Impacts Act of 2024, which provides an important step towards measuring and shaping AI's impacts! https://t.co/EsXKiWvFEs
We may gain a lot from artificial intelligence, but let’s be mindful of the environmental costs. Looks like the AI boom demands LOTS of energy. https://t.co/1wdApxms5q
Today, we had the honour of welcoming Michelle Donelan, Secretary of State for @SciTechgovuk to discuss AI regulation, the development of the technology, and the ways in which it can contribute to the fight against climate change. https://t.co/wLFAIMgxZZ
#ArtificialIntelligence (#AI) can make a big dent in carbon emissions if innovators apply it strategically in certain critical sectors like food, power, and transportation industries. #ClimateChange https://t.co/Zg5cQfe6GL https://t.co/AQqdt0THLY
#AI is driving the rapid expansion of the #DataCenter and will contribute to more energy consumption, according to a new report from @IEA. Renewable energy and high-performance, energy-efficient processors can help alleviate the problem. More via @verge. https://t.co/lCl9vDZKNP
