"Generative AI’s environmental costs are soaring — and mostly secret
Last month, #OpenAI chief executive Sam #Altman finally admitted what researchers have been saying for years — that the artificial intelligence (#AI) industry is heading for an #energy#crisis."
Hey look here is $ 7 trillion for the global climate fund:
"The report by the International Monetary Fund (#IMF) found explicit #subsidies alone have more than doubled since the previous IMF assessment, rising from $500 billion in 2020 to $1.3 trillion in 2022.
IMF also calculates implicit #FossilFuelSubsidies, which include the cost of things such as undercharging for #EnvironmentalCosts. Adding those in and the total subsidies ballooned to $7 trillion in 2022."
