AI And Your Carbon Footprint. The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
Join us for our next free webinar on Thursday 27th June 2024 at 10:30am where speakers Aidan Connolly, CEO at Idiro Analytics the pioneers in AI and analytics, and Francis O’Haire, Group Technology Director, DataSolutions, will discuss how AI can help (and hinder) decarbonisation efforts across your business operations.
AI - The Good, The Bad, The Ugly
Artificial intelligence can positively and negatively contribute to climate change mitigation.
AI algorithms can help in designing energy-efficient buildings, planning low-emission transportation routes and optimising supply chains.
AI can also help businesses transition to more sustainable practices by streamlining operations and identifying areas for energy savings.
AI-driven predictive maintenance and process optimisation can reduce energy and waste consumption in manufacturing and logistics.
Generative AI can be an important educational and skills training resource for businesses as they implement a sustainable low carbon culture among their staff.
But the use of AI raises questions about data privacy and security. The extensive data needed to power AI solutions could lead to potential misuse or data breaches.
Additionally, current ChatGPT queries need nearly 10 times as much electricity to process as a Google search. As the AI revolution gathers steam, the carbon footprint of data centres may more than double by 2030 to 3 to 4% of total global power consumption.

AI has the potential to revolutionise our efforts to tackle climate change but it must be carefully managed to avoid its ethical, privacy and emissions related downsides.
