Here's a question; how much water do you think a single query of ChatGPT consumes? What about Carbon Emissions? How many round trip flights between New York and San Francisco equal the Co2 emitted by training one Large Language Model? And maybe this is the most important one - how would you even figure those numbers out when the big AI companies don't make them public? Concerns about AI's impact on Climate Change aren't new, but as extreme weather events like the floods in North Carolina and the wild fires in L.A. become more and more frequent, a lot of us are wondering just how much blame we should lay at AI's doorstep. How can we make sure that we take our planet into account while continuing to develop this technology? To help us understand the real cost of all our ChatGPT queries and Dall-E diversions, we're talking to two women who are both fighting for more transparency around these very questions. Dr. Sasha Luccioni, the Climate Lead at AI company Hugging Face, has chosen to fight for more sustainable AI from within an AI company. On the other hand, Yoca Arditi-Rocha, executive director at the CLEO Institute is deeply skeptical that businesses will choose to put the planet above profit on their own accord.  Can an Insider approach lead to climate-safe AI? Or is it up to activists and outsiders to make sure that all those AI prompts we thought were saving us so much time don't end up meaning our planet's time is up that much sooner.

Today, we're joined by Sasha Luccioni, AI and Climate lead at Hugging Face, to discuss the environmental impact of AI models. We dig into her recent research into the relative energy consumption of general purpose pre-trained models vs. task-specific, non-generative models for common AI tasks. We discuss the implications of the significant difference in efficiency and power consumption between the two types of models. Finally, we explore the complexities of energy efficiency and performance benchmarking, and talk through Sasha's recent initiative, Energy Star Ratings for AI Models, a rating system designed to help AI users select and deploy models based on their energy efficiency.

### Meta's AI Chief Says Current AI Models Won't Match Human Intelligence- Yann LeCun, Meta's head of AI, believes current AI models like ChatGPT are not yet on the path to human-level intelligence.- These models excel at generating text but lack human-like reasoning and planning capabilities.- They are overly dependent on training data, limiting their understanding of logic and the physical world.- LeCun suggests a new approach is needed for AI to truly emulate human cognitive processes.### Emotional Robots: Hinton's Insight and Criticism- Geoffrey Hinton recalls a 1973 robot showing "emotion" by reacting to a pile of toy car pieces.- Hinton equates feelings to actions constrained by the situation, likening the robot's actions to human emotions.- Critics, including Dr. Neel Burton and Dr. Sasha Luccioni, argue emotions and feelings are far more complex.- The debate highlights differing perspectives on AI and the anthropomorphism of machines.### Head Transplant: BrainBridge's Revolutionary System- BrainBridge introduces the world's first head transplant system using AI, robotic arms, and lasers.- The system aims to help patients with terminal illnesses and severe disabilities by performing complex surgeries without human involvement.- Major challenges include reattaching spinal cord and nerve connections.- Led by Hashem Al-Ghaili in Dubai, the project hopes to begin operations in eight years and attract top biomedical talent.- The concept raises ethical and technical questions, reminiscent of science fiction.### Sony Music Warns Tech Companies Over AI Use of Artists' Work- **Context**: Sony Music Entertainment is protecting its music from unauthorized AI usage.- **Recipients**: Over 700 AI developers and streaming services, including OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google.- **Prohibitions**: AI developers are forbidden from using Sony's music for training, development, or commercialization.- **Legal Position**: Sony seeks to establish a clear legal stance and ensure fair compensation for using its music.- **Demands**: AI developers must disclose all content used, highlighting the need for adherence to copyright laws.Get intouch with Myles at mylesdhillon@gmail.com

“I think it's kind of important to think about the fact that originally, neural networks were inspired by neurons, really by our brains, but fundamentally, brains are really different than AI models, currently. Brains are quite efficient. For example, we won't be using all of our neurons all the time. If we're recognizing a face, or if we're speaking, or if we're drawing, or if we're watching a movie, or reading a book, there are different zones. And I think that that's kind of the core of the issue because whereas we can kind of use a portion of our brain, depending on the activity, neural networks don't have that built-in efficiency.”What are the pros and cons of AI's integration into our institutions, political systems, culture, and society?

In this episode of Tech Tonic, we ask whether AI's potential in the fight against the climate crisis justifies the massive amounts of energy it takes to run these systems. The computing power required to train AI concerns some researchers, who have built a calculator to count the tech's carbon footprint. But AI advances have also opened new avenues to fight climate change, by helping Arctic scientists, weather modellers, and green energy gurus. This week the FT's innovation editor John Thornhill and environment and clean energy correspondent Leslie Hook, debate AI's climate effects. We also hear from Jennifer Jackson, a molecular biologist at the British Antarctic Survey, and Sasha Luccioni, an AI researcher at Mila research institute in Quebec.
