Understanding man word for word, but a war breaks out. It is practically everywhere. But this revolution has a cost, especially to the environment. She is the one who finds a study of the alarming, from the Institute of Technology of Massachusetts (MIT).
Will you lead HIM into the crisis, the future of energy? The data is cut out WITH
The impact of the first artificial intelligence is the use of energy. The pattern of IT, with billions of parameters, are in the midst of the pit of the truth, to no end. And the data centers that run the system, but show up as a mushroom.
In North America, the consumption of electrical energy in the center of the data, it was doubled in one year. He went out of 2688 megavat at the end of 2022 at 5341 megavat at the end of the year is 2023. On a global scale we're talking about 460 teravat in the year 2022, which is the equivalent to the entire consumption of the electric power of the French. And things are not going to get better. 1050 teravat can be expected in the year 2026, more than double the amount.
HE is a major threat to water resources
But electricity is not the only problem. For a cool harduerin, data centers consume too the water. It is estimated that for every kilowatt hour of electricity it requires two gallons of water. In a disaster, the truth about ecosystems. And it is also a requirement of the simplest and ChatGPT there is a cost: it will be konsumonte to five times more energy than a survey course on the web. A number is used to increase the complexity in the growth of the models, HE said.
A challenge for the production of the hardware
The output of the hardware that runs IT on his own. In the year 2023, Nvidia, AMD and Intel were sent 3,85 million graphics cards (GPU) in the center of the data, the 2,67 million in 2022. And this is only the beginning. The problem is that the GPU is far more complex to produce than a CPU-standard. That means more pollution, the more the production of the raw material, more and more products, toxic. In other words, a trace of carbon in the blast.
IT is an influence that is still a little-known
The worst thing about all this is that we don't matim full effects of environmental to the boom of the IT. As the stresses Elsa A. Olivetti, a professor at MIT, “We have a need for a more contextual understanding of systematic and comprehensive, the implications of the recent developments in the field.”
In other words, the intelligent man is advancing so rapidly that we have not yet been able to assess all the effects of it. Of course, if it is not nothing, it can be the cause of katastrofën the current environmental issues. Now, it is high time for you to worry about this more than ever.
