Is Your Chatbot Thirsty? The Environmental Cost of AI
We often hear about what AI can do, but rarely what it takes to keep it running. AI depends on massive data centers that consume staggering amounts of electricity. The high-density computer hardware, operating 24/7, runs very hot. Water-based cooling systems prevent overheating but require millions of gallons of water per day. Join University of Hartford Professor Laura Pence as she pulls back the curtain on AI’s environmental impact and explores the path toward a more sustainable digital future. Thursday, March 12, 2-3:30 p.m. Sponsored by President’s College Lifelong Learning at the University of Hartford. Visit Hartford.edu/pc to check this out as well as lots of other winter/spring courses & lectures. Email [email protected] or call 860.768.4495 with questions or to be added to the mailing list.
