“(A.I.) is so energy intensive as a technology, and that's the thing that we have to get, the infrastructure of AI… Right now we do not have an electricity grid that is, that is built for this purpose. There's the water requirements of it as well. And we also need to just think about the energy, the actual fuel that's being used to fire up and power the electricity grid.” Dr. Stephanie Hare on Electric Ladies Podcast
Artificial intelligence (AI) is ubiquitous today and advancing faster than we can imagine. It’s being used in many ways to mitigate and adapt to climate change, too, and to develop and scale clean energy solutions, But, it requires enormous amounts of electricity, water and fuel just to run the data centers.
What to do? Listen to this fascinating conversation with Stephanie Hare, Ph.D., on Electric Ladies Podcast with host Joan Michelson. Stephanie is a researcher focused on the intersection of politics, technology and history, the author of the book “Technology Is Not Neutral” and co-presents “Artificial Intelligence: Decoded” on the BBC.
Join them as they explore the promise and pitfalls of AI as a tool to mitigate climate change, and innovate clean energy solutions, and do so in an equitable fashion.
You’ll hear about:
● The hurdles and opportunities of using AI
● Why environmental, social, and governance (ESG) data needs to be treated as a valuable resource.
● How we can ensure that AI is fair, accessible, and inclusive for everyone
