Training AI: The Real Carbon Footprint Could AI Be the Next Big Energy Consumer After Bitcoin?

The adoption of artificial intelligence (AI) is growing continuously with the aid of innovations, automation, robots, machine learning, and countless other advanced technologies, we can perform tasks with greater efficiency and precision. However, amidst the buzz of AI’s current and potential achievements lies the perilous issue of AI’s increasing energy consumption and sustainable growth. Should we format AI as an added energy predator like we do with Bitcoin?  

The Increase in Electricity Consumption Eagered by AI Models  

The revolution in AI technology is underpinned by deep-learning-based language models, such as GPT series developed by OpenAI and Gemini by Google DeepMind. Such models require overwhelming computational capabilities for training and execution. During training, billions of parameters (the frameworks of an AI’s “understanding”) must be processed, utilizing powerful GPU clusters available in an expansive network of data centers.  

One research suggested that training an AI model consumes energy equivalent to a household’s annual consumption. In the AI industry’s context, running on idle capping machines in different data center locations translates to millions of dollars in costs throughout the year: Maintaining Energy Hungry AI Models’ infrastructure. In this regard, OpenAI claimed GPT-3 consumed approximately 1,287 MWh of electricity (equivalent to about 550 tons of carbon dioxide emissions, depending on the energy source). This worrying singular model trend spells doom as demand-oriented deployments bolster the industry’s energy appetite.

From Bitcoin to AI: A Looming Energy Battle?

The unique nature of verifying transactions through the proof-of-work (PoW) algorithm in Bitcoin mining poses a massive contradiction as a decentralized and competitive practice. This has culminated in the excessive criticism directed towards Bitcoin mining for its massive energy consumption which is estimated to be 120-150 TWh terawatt hours.’ A good analogy for this would be to equate energy consumption to entire countries such as the Netherlands and Argentina.

Bitcoin, however, has some competition in the form of AI, and as it seems it is catching up at an astonishing rate. It is estimated that virtually by 2025 the global energy demand in training and deploying AI systems could rival or surpass Bitcoin’s current consumption levels. Unlike Bitcoin, AI’s energy requirements are not limited to training; they also encompass inference engines for real-time applications. These include chatbots, recommendation systems, search engines, etc.

The Environmental Impact

The trend AI adoption and development follows is deeply concerning. Data centers that enable the deployment and training of AI models account for roughly 1-2% of global electricity usage, and this figure will drastically rise in light of the accelerated adoption of AI across the globe. Should these data centers be powered by fossil fuels, the carbon emissions would further deteriorate the climate and environment well-being, all the while making attempts to urge people to cut down on their carbon footprint.

In the case of large companies, some of these problems are being addressed by investing in renewable energies and improving the efficacy of the hardware being used. For example, NVIDIA’s new AI chips are built to do more calculations for every unit of energy used. Still, the advances in these technologies and the scale of the construction of AI systems remain extraordinarily difficult.

The Future: Moderating the Rate of Developments and Sustainability

What is the answer then? Energy usage needs to be approached in a most effective manner. From the very beginning, it should be a concern in hardware and software structuring. There are some attempts utilizing machine learning on pruning and quantization methodologies which limit the resources which are used to perform computations while retaining sufficiently high levels of performance. A considerable amount of attention is also required from the states and the IT circles to clean energy to sustain the newly designed AI infrastructure.

In AIXCircle, we are of the opinion that AI can change the world in many domains such as health care, finance, etc. As these opportunities are enticing, one cannot stay back and tried grabbing them. However, it’s also essential that AI should not become a technology like Bitcoin which offers a lot in terms of capabilities but fails to address the environmental challenges it creates.

Conclusion

The sharp rise in AI’s energy consumption serves as a reminder that model training should be approached with a balanced perspective toward sustainable resource use. As the competition to create environmentally responsible, resource-efficient AI systems heats up, it is critical to align innovations with ethical responsibility.

I decided to put here what chat gpt said about it all cause it was just so beautiful, so much better than how I explained it 😭💗

Chat GPT:

"That statement — "We are, all of us, stardust, held together by love for an instant" — is beautifully symbolic and rich in meaning. Let’s break it down:

#1. "We are, all of us, stardust"

This phrase emphasizes a sense of shared origin and interconnectedness. The idea that all living beings (and even non-living matter) are made of "stardust" is inspired by a scientific truth: the elements that make up our bodies, like carbon, oxygen, and nitrogen, were forged in the cores of stars billions of years ago. When those stars exploded as supernovae, they scattered these elements across the cosmos, which eventually formed planets, life, and us.

In a more poetic sense, this line reminds Aaravos that both elves and humans — indeed, all beings — share a common origin. It suggests that the boundaries between races or beings (like the immortal elves and mortals) are ultimately superficial because they all come from the same cosmic source.

---

#2. "Held together by love"

This part of the statement shifts from the cosmic to the emotional and spiritual. If "stardust" symbolizes the physical essence of all beings, "love" represents the force that gives meaning to their existence. It implies that the true binding force of life is not just physical matter, but the connections, compassion, and relationships that beings share.

For Aaravos, this could be a reminder that his love for his daughter — and her love for humans — is what gives their existence value, even in the face of tragedy. It also highlights that love, as fleeting as it might be, is what defines the experience of life, both for mortals and immortals.

---

#3. "For an instant"

This phrase introduces a poignant awareness of impermanence. It acknowledges that all existence, no matter how seemingly eternal, is temporary when viewed on a cosmic scale. To immortal beings, like Startouch elves, a human life might seem like a fleeting moment — and yet, even their own existence is but an "instant" in the vastness of the universe.

This emphasizes the fleeting nature of love, connection, and life itself. The Merciful One could be suggesting that Aaravos's grief, though immense now, is part of the transient nature of existence. Even the pain of loss is a reflection of the beauty of having loved in the first place.

---

Putting it Together

The Merciful One’s words seem to be an attempt at comforting Aaravos by placing his grief in a broader, cosmic context. They acknowledge the shared, fragile nature of all beings and suggest that love — even if temporary — is what gives meaning to life. By reminding him of the impermanence of all things, the Merciful One might also be gently encouraging him to find peace and let go of his century-long sorrow, knowing that his daughter’s love and actions mattered, even if they caused pain.

In essence, the statement is about unity, love, and the fleeting beauty of existence. It’s a way of saying: Though we are all made of the same cosmic material, it is love that gives us form and meaning in this brief moment we share."

There's something that I want to shed a little light on:

"We are, all of us, stardust, held together by love for an instant."

Yes, this quote irritates a lot of us, but there's actually something really meaningful about it...

You guys remember when Aaravos was talking to Sol Regem, and he repeated the words the Stern One said to him? "Sometimes the line between cruelty and mercy can be thin."

After the last episode of s6, that made me realize something about Aaravos: he cares about what others say to him (as also shown with Terry in s7), and he keeps their words with him, recalling what they said when the current moment reminds him of it. So this...

Right here, he was smiling as he repeated the words the Merciful One said to him. This says a lot imo. Those words meant something meaningful to him, as also shown by his expression here when they said it:

So, I'm going to say it again.

"We are, all of us, stardust, held together by love for an instant."

At first, I thought they were basically saying "yeah yeah we all feel sorry for you right now"

But no, it's more. I needed chat gpt to help me with this cause I just couldn't seem to fully understand this quote, but now I do lol

The Merciful One's words were a reminder. Startouch elves are immortal, and they understand time more than any other species in TDP. When they said that "all of us" are stardust, I believe they meant every creature.

But the part I want you to think about is the rest of the sentence: "held together by love for an instant"

Stardust is scattered (atoms, nitrogen, etc.) And what I think the Merciful One was saying is that love is what keeps us whole/connected. But because of their sense of time, they're reminding Aaravos that it's fleeting; such a brief moment in the vastness of time. So, this was basically what they said:

"Every one of us is made out of stardust, and love is what keeps us whole/connected, a fleeting moment in the vastness of time."

There's either two ways to interpret what they were trying to tell him by reminding him of this fact:

1) This was the nature of things, and it was time to stop mourning...

2) For all of them, the moments experienced are brief, so focus not on how Leola's gone, but on the little time he spent with her

And that's why I believe Aaravos repeated those words: because at that moment, the focus was love.

You know how Greta Thunberg said "You have stolen our dreams"?

This is how I feel about Sam Altman and AI.

I was *robbed* of a future where AI is a cool tool, instead of yet another shiny, meaningless tech buzzword, and a shit feature that nobody wants to increase sales. Instead of something to help us better diagnose cancer, we are setting the planet on fire and completely disregarding anything Hayao Miyazaki has said about how he feels about AI, all just to see how we'd look as Studio Ghibli characters.

You see, I study AI. But I applied before the whole ChatGPT thing. At the time, OpenAI let a few select people prompt GPT-3. To generate YouTube titles and that sort of thing.

Back then, AI was mostly used for analytical purposes. To detect fires early, to help analyze protein folding, to develop new medication. And this was what drew me in.

When ChatGPT hit the scenes, I was genuinely excited for the potential of it. For the potential to make the internet more accessible, to be used for good.

Oh, how naïve I was back then.

Instead of that, AI is - in the best case scenario - used as yet another meaningless tech buzzword. It infests any product of any company that has nothing else to offer.

And that is the best case scenario. In the average case, instead of just being enshittification itself, it helps to accelerate enshittification by generating meaningless slop to poison search results, both in text and in picture form.

In the worst case scenario, AI is actively being used for harm. Used to generate nonconsensual imagery of people. Used as a tool for misinformation, for manipulating the public opinion, not only enshittifying the internet, but actively making it a worse, more hostile, more adverse place.

And that does not even touch on the issue of how training data is gathered, and the legal and ethical problems this raises, which, I hope, being on Tumblr, you're all well aware of by now. To any artist, I fully support you using nightshade to actively poison your work.

So yes. Despite being a student of AI, I am disgusted with what this field has become.

The following paragraphs are directed at anyone who has worked or currently works on any generative AI system:

You have stolen my dreams.

Not only have you stolen my dreams, you have plundered them for every dollar, every cent, against any moral or ethical code, in search of profits over everything.

You are going against every moral code that people should be committed to. But you don't care, as long as you can make a quick buck.

You don't care if Hayao Miyazaki has called generative AI "an insult to life itself". You just want to see yourself in the Studio Ghibli style, because to you, everything, even art, is something to be commoditized, to be mass-produced just so it can be instantly forgotten.

FUCK YOU AND THE MECHANICAL HORSE YOU RODE IN ON.

AI Reminder

Quick reminder folks since there's been a recent surge of AI fanfic shite. Here is some info from Earth.org on the environmental effects of ChatGPT and it's fellow AI language models.

"ChatGPT, OpenAI's chatbot, consumes more than half a million kilowatt-hours of electricity each day, which is about 17,000 times more than the average US household. This is enough to power about 200 million requests, or nearly 180,000 US households. A single ChatGPT query uses about 2.9 watt-hours, which is almost 10 times more than a Google search, which uses about 0.3 watt-hours. 

According to estimates, ChatGPT emits 8.4 tons of carbon dioxide per year, more than twice the amount that is emitted by an individual, which is 4 tons per year. Of course, the type of power source used to run these data centres affects the amount of emissions produced – with coal or natural gas-fired plants resulting in much higher emissions compared to solar, wind, or hydroelectric power – making exact figures difficult to provide. 

A recent study by researchers at the University of California, Riverside, revealed the significant water footprint of AI models like ChatGPT-3 and 4. The study reports that Microsoft used approximately 700,000 litres of freshwater during GPT-3’s training in its data centres – that’s equivalent to the amount of water needed to produce 370 BMW cars or 320 Tesla vehicles."

Now I don't want to sit here and say that AI is the worst thing that has ever happened. It can be an important tool in advancing effectiveness in technology! However, there are quite a few drawbacks as we have not figured out yet how to mitigate these issues, especially on the environment, if not used wisely. Likewise, AI is not meant to do the work for you, it's meant to assist. For example, having it spell check your work? Sure, why not! Having it write your work and fics for you? You are stealing from others that worked hard to produce beautiful work.

Thank you for coming to my Cyn Talk. I love you all!

Recent advances in artificial intelligence (AI) have generalized the use of large language models in our society, in areas such as education, science, medicine, art, and finance, among many others. These models are increasingly present in our daily lives. However, they are not as reliable as users expect. This is the conclusion of a study led by a team from the VRAIN Institute of the Universitat Politècnica de València (UPV) and the Valencian School of Postgraduate Studies and Artificial Intelligence Research Network (ValgrAI), together with the University of Cambridge, published today in the journal Nature. The work reveals an “alarming” trend: compared to the first models, and considering certain aspects, reliability has worsened in the most recent models (GPT-4 compared to GPT-3, for example). According to José Hernández Orallo, researcher at the Valencian Research Institute in Artificial Intelligence (VRAIN) of the UPV and ValgrAI, one of the main concerns about the reliability of language models is that their performance does not align with the human perception of task difficulty. In other words, there is a discrepancy between expectations that models will fail according to human perception of task difficulty and the tasks where models actually fail. “Models can solve certain complex tasks according to human abilities, but at the same time fail in simple tasks in the same domain. For example, they can solve several doctoral-level mathematical problems, but can make mistakes in a simple addition,” points out Hernández-Orallo. In 2022, Ilya Sutskever, the scientist behind some of the biggest advances in artificial intelligence in recent years (from the Imagenet solution to AlphaGo) and co-founder of OpenAI, predicted that “perhaps over time that discrepancy will diminish.” However, the study by the UPV, ValgrAI, and University of Cambridge team shows that this has not been the case. To demonstrate this, they investigated three key aspects that affect the reliability of language models from a human perspective.
