Two Rivers, 30 Minutes for 8-1-2025
Topic: The hidden costs of those free A.I. apps
Guest: Ben Murray, senior researcher for Food & Water Watch
How Topic Discussed: A.I. apps are promising to improve our search engine results, clean up our emails and other documents, and can generate realistic-looking photos and videos with just a few words to prompt them. Why are the data centers that power these A.I. applications so power-hungry? Where does the electricity to power them come from? How does generating all of that power affect our air and water quality? Why aren't technology companies investing more money in clean and renewable energy? What questions should consumers and elected officials be asking about power-hungry A.I. data centers?
