Companies are facing increasing scrutiny over the environmental impact of artificial intelligence (AI). Despite efforts to reduce carbon emissions, the energy demands of AI data centers are significant, potentially offsetting the benefits of new technology. Amazon, for instance, reported a 3% reduction in its carbon footprint in 2023, attributed to cuts in spending on new warehouses and cloud-computing data centers. However, AI-driven climate challenges remain a concern, with emissions potentially increasing by over 50%. Experts, including prof. Mollick and BruceC_Inc, suggest that companies can mitigate AI’s growing environmental footprint through systemic changes.
