The Ecological Cost of AI Is Much Higher Than You Think - Truthdig
As the demands of AI grow, each generation of microchips requires more energy, minerals and water to produce, driving a ruinous cycle.
"In an internal memo from September, CEO Sam Altman said that OpenAIβs βaudacious long-term goal is to build 250 gigawatts of capacity by 2033.β If Altman achieves this goal, OpenAI will need almost exactly as much electricity as Indiaβs 1.5 billion people"
