Energy Costs Are Catching Up With Big Tech

Artificial intelligence is all the rage these days, and so is its energy consumption. From a game-changing technology that would usher in a new era, AI has recently turned into a problem for many—a problem that makes electricity more expensive while, apparently, not really living up to the promise of its developers. Big Tech is still pledging tens of billions in AI spend. Now, it may have to spend a bigger portion of those billions on securing its own energy, and on proving its worth the money t

Sweden outlines child care policy amid registration row over infant in Hong Kong

Swedish authorities who have taken over the care of the daughter of a Hong Kong couple with a troubled parenting history have said that whether a child faces risks at home is one of the key factors when deciding if intervention is needed. But the social services department of Sweden’s Linkoping municipality declined to comment on the legal status of the couple’s daughter Lily on Wednesday, saying doing so would harm those involved.

Skipping pleasantries like “please” and “thank you” when talking to chatbots could save enough energy to power the annual needs of 760,000 residents in sub-Saharan Africa, highlighting the massive but often hidden environmental toll of artificial intelligence, according to a new UN report. Released by the Institute for Water, Environment and Health under the United Nations University, the UN’s academic arm, the study published on Wednesday also warned that the true cost of AI extended far beyond

Sanity check my AI infrastructure pie

Basically I'm trying to cover the components that are necessary for AI growth, ie. Semiconductors, coolant, lithography. This way I'm just betting that AI "wins" as a concept rather than backing a specific pony? That said, I am a die-hard Rolls and Kraken fan so I guess I'm backing those ponies.
