Growing AI use raises hidden climate costs due to energy and water demands of data centers.
Everyday use of artificial intelligence (AI) is increasingly linked to a hidden climate cost.
AI relies on energy-intensive data centers, often powered by fossil fuels, which contribute to greenhouse gas emissions.
These centers also consume vast amounts of water for cooling.
Despite efforts to improve efficiency, the growing demand for AI services may counteract these improvements.
The exact impact of AI on the climate is hard to measure, but it is significant enough to warrant consideration of its environmental consequences.
