AI is power hungry, or at least it can be, according to Brian Sathianathan, Co-Founder of Iterate.ai. Generative AI can be intense, and it can use power, generously. Meanwhile AI is being touted as aa tool to help with global warming, with both direct applications for industry, and in other cases being used to match human needs to improve the efficiency of water (and the energy involved in delivering water, and food). Brian sees a path to an AI environment where AI can tackle both challenges. Sathianathan describes a path to lower AI energy use and describes ways for AI to be applied to match both human and environmental needs. He sees a future where AI runs almost in the background, quietly providing the benefits of automation and, with the right methods, nit getting in the way of its own gains.
Can this balance between innovation and responsible control be found? And will new AI technology expedite our global sustainability efforts?
"The deliberations at the recent Paris Peace Forum regarding AI represent a critical juncture in our collective approach to sustainable development. As experts and policymakers harness AI's transformative capabilities, it is imperative that its integration is strategically aligned with our global objectives for climate sustainability. This forum and the conversations regarding AI in Paris need to serve as a catalyst for a deeper understanding of AI's potential as a tool for ecological stewardship. It is essential to maintain balance where technological progress does not come at the expense of our planet's health. Our focus must be on crafting AI solutions that are not only innovative but also ethically and environmentally responsible, reflecting a commitment to a sustainable and equitable future,” stated Brian Sathianathan, in a previously published statement.
With proper regulation and global collaboration, AI has the potential to create lasting impact on the climate crisis, and Iterate.ai is ready to be part of these efforts.
