"This massive use of components to fuel the hardware that runs AI models is throwing off millions of tons of discarded electronic components. A new study published in Nature by a team of researchers from China, Israel, and the UK estimates that large language models (LLMs) like ChatGPT, Claude or LlaMa alone could generate 2.75 million tons (2.5 million tonnes) of e-waste annually, severely increasing the environmental impact of AI." https://decrypt-co.cdn.ampproject.org/c/s/decrypt.co/290638/ai-boom-e-waste-toxic-materials-2030?amp=1 #ai #environment
