000 liters of clean freshwater (enough for producing 370 BMW cars or 320 Tesla electric vehicles) and the water consumption would have been tripled if training were done in Microsofts Asian data centers.The researchers distinguish between water “withdrawal” and “consumption” when estimating AI’s water usage.

The estimates of AI water consumption were presented by researchers from the Universities of Colorado Riverside and Texas Arlington in a pre-print article titled “Making AI Less ‘Thirsty.

we highlight the necessity of holistically addressing water footprint along with carbon footprint to enable truly sustainable AI.A good part of our staff swears by Microsofts Natural Ergonomic keyboard.
