Dr Sasha Luccioni: The climate cost of AI
Despite the inexorable growth of Generative AI tools such as ChatGPT or Midjourney in the past couple of years, painfully little is known - or at least publicised - about their carbon impact. However, Dr Sasha Luccioni is on a mission to change that. Hannah and Rob talk to her about how she’s trying to maximise the benefits of AI, while minimising its hidden climate costs. Why is AI development such a black box? And could AI be part of the solution to the climate crisis?GuestSasha Luccioni, AI and Climate Lead, Hugging FaceCo-hostsHannah Ritchie, Deputy Editor and Lead Researcher, Our World In Data @_HannahRitchieRob Stewart, Co-founder and Director of Sustainability, KobaVisit Sasha's website and subscribe to Hannah's Substack 'Sustainability by numbers'Produced by Rachel BalmerWant to get in touch?
