Sobre este episodio

<p>Dexter doesn't have a car. But he uses AI&hellip; a lot. So, is his environmental impact worse than someone who drives a truck to work every day?&nbsp;</p> <p>This seemingly simple question led us to a bigger conversation about water, public health, and why we still don't know much about the true environmental cost of artificial intelligence.&nbsp;</p> <p>To help us understand all this, we talk to researchers&nbsp;<a href="https://shaoleiren.github.io/">Shaolei Ren</a> and <a href="https://digiconomist.net/about/">Alex de Vries</a>, who&rsquo;ve been studying the toll AI takes on the planet.</p> <p>Got something you&rsquo;re curious about?
