AI Sustainability Explained

  • Summary

  • In this episode of Simply Science, we dive into the escalating energy demands of artificial intelligence (AI) and the critical questions it raises for our future. As AI technology advances, its need for power is projected to surge, with AI data centers potentially consuming as much electricity as entire nations by 2026. We’ll explore the sustainability challenges this poses, especially with climate change and limited resources in play.

    Could nuclear power provide a solution to AI’s vast energy appetite, or do the risks outweigh the benefits? Join us as we unpack the environmental impact of AI’s growth, the potential hard limits of its expansion, and the urgent need for innovative, sustainable energy sources to support the next generation of AI.
