Technology’s Carbon Footprint: Can AI Be a Responsible Revolution?

2023-09-04

There are currently over 8,000 data centers worldwide, and with the advent of artificial intelligence (AI), this number is expected to continue to expand. Research estimates that by 2025, the IT industry will account for 20% of electricity consumption and approximately 5.5% of global carbon emissions. This raises a pressing and increasingly pressing question: how should the industry address its carbon footprint?

In 2019, researchers at the University of Massachusetts trained several large language models and found that training a single AI model can produce emissions equivalent to the lifetime emissions of five cars. Furthermore, a recent study by Google and UC Berkeley reported that training GPT-3 resulted in 552 metric tons of carbon emissions, equivalent to driving a passenger car for 2 million kilometers. OpenAI's latest generation model, GPT-4, has approximately 570 times the computing parameters of GPT-3. As AI becomes more powerful and ubiquitous, the scale of these systems will only grow.

The International Energy Agency (IEA) states that global data center energy use increased by only 6% between 2010 and 2018, despite a 550% increase in workloads and computing instances. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang stated that the large-scale deployment of AI and faster computing will ultimately reduce demand on the global data cloud. Furthermore, AI will transform your laptop, car, or other device into an energy-efficient supercomputer. OpenAI's Sam Altman believes that AI will soon be able to build a completely new future for humanity, and once we possess truly powerful superintelligence, addressing climate change will not be particularly difficult. For example, you could ask: "Show me how to cheaply produce large quantities of clean energy, show me how to efficiently capture carbon dioxide, and show me how to build a global-scale factory to achieve this goal."
