Re: Artificial Intelligence
AI’s emissions are about to skyrocket even further
AI Has A Sustainability Problem: How To Tackle It’s Carbon Footprint
* * *It’s no secret that the current AI boom is using up immense amounts of energy. Now we have a better idea of how much.
A new paper, from teams at the Harvard T.H. Chan School of Public Health and UCLA Fielding School of Public Health, examined 2,132 data centers operating in the United States (78% of all facilities in the country). These facilities—essentially buildings filled to the brim with rows of servers—are where AI models get trained, and they also get “pinged” every time we send a request through models like ChatGPT. They require huge amounts of energy both to power the servers and to keep them cool.
Since 2018, carbon emissions from data centers in the US have tripled. For the 12 months ending August 2024, data centers were responsible for 105 million metric tons of CO2, accounting for 2.18% of national emissions (for comparison, domestic commercial airlines are responsible for about 131 million metric tons). About 4.59% of all the energy used in the US goes toward data centers, a figure that’s doubled since 2018.
It’s difficult to put a number on how much AI in particular, which has been booming since ChatGPT launched in November 2022, is responsible for this surge. That’s because data centers process lots of different types of data—in addition to training or pinging AI models, they do everything from hosting websites to storing your photos in the cloud. However, the researchers say, AI’s share is certainly growing rapidly as nearly every segment of the economy attempts to adopt the technology...
AI Has A Sustainability Problem: How To Tackle It’s Carbon Footprint
... We’ve become so accustomed to using services such as search and text generation over sleek user interfaces that few even consider what each click or prompt entails in real terms.
Google has estimated that each online search takes up 0.3 watt-hours worth of electricity, and the latest estimates on generating images with services like DALL-E peg one image at the same energy requirement as charging up your mobile phone....

Re: Artificial Intelligence
A bunch of snake oil. Two years ago the company was looking into it. Fast forward to now and there's a blanket ban on AI on all company computers. Even Grammarly and all the foreign nationals have to write their tickets in broken English now.
The main issue is people were using it to compile programs that they themselves then didn't understand how they worked.

Re: Artificial Intelligence
Over here Kid Starver has championed AI as being like the shit that's going to save on all that pointless admin, so the govt's going to build one in an area of severe water scarcity.

Re: Artificial Intelligence
Yeah my girlfriend's cousin, who is a baroness, is really excited by it. I didn't have the heart to try counter her.
Maybe next time she's over.

Re: Artificial Intelligence
It's about stories? We love stories, so AI feeds us stories.
The Narrative Brain: The Stories Our Neurons Tell Kindle Edition

The Narrative Brain: The Stories Our Neurons Tell Kindle Edition
by Fritz Alwin Breithaupt (Author)
https://www.amazon.com/Narrative-Brain- ... hdGY&psc=1An investigation of the emotional power of narrative that illuminates the relationship between the human brain and the stories we tell.
As humans, we think in stories—stories that allow us to feel and share emotions. In order for this phenomenon to work, our brains and the ways in which we tell stories must be attuned to each other. But how exactly does this happen?
Tapping into the essence of thinking in stories, Fritz Breithaupt draws on the latest scientific research, including a retelling study (comparable to the telephone game) with more than 12,000 participants, and experiments in which ChatGPT functions as storyteller. This wide-ranging study includes analyses of political history, novels, fairy tales, and everyday office gossip; proposes a new theory of narrative that focuses on emotions and affects; and hypothesizes on the evolution of narratives among our hominid ancestors. Redefining us as beings who anchor ourselves in the world through narratives, Breithaupt introduces a new kind of psychology that cuts to the core of how and why humans feel the need to tell stories.
