Commentary: Will AI sink or save the planet?
AI holds enormous potential to benefit the environment, but it simultaneously consumes massive amounts of water and energy. One generative AI data center can use up to 5 million gallons of water a day, and AI as a whole draws as much power as 100,000 households. A single AI query can use up to 1,000 times more electricity than a traditional Google search. The result is an urgent paradox: AI is becoming one of the most sophisticated tools ever built to combat climate change, yet it is also one of the fastest-growing strains on the planet's resources.
