The rapid growth of AI technology has led to significant increases in energy consumption, raising serious environmental concerns. Predictions indicate that by 2025, AI could consume more energy than the entire human workforce, which would negate any carbon-zero gains achieved. This situation highlights the urgent need for the AI industry to prioritize sustainable practices to ensure that technological advancements do not harm the planet.

The shift back to coal in some regions, driven by the need for more data centers, underscores the complex trade-offs between technological progress and sustainability. To address these challenges, the industry must adopt a systemic approach that includes evaluating environmental impacts, investing in energy-efficient technologies, and fostering collaboration among stakeholders.
