According to a new study by researchers from AI startup HuggingFace and Carnegie Mellon University, each use of AI to generate images, compose emails, or ask questions to chatbots imposes a certain burden on the Earth. In fact, the energy consumed by generating an image with a powerful AI model is equivalent to fully charging a mobile phone. However, they found that the energy consumption for generating text with AI models is significantly lower. Generating 1000 texts consumes only 16% of the energy equivalent to charging a mobile phone. Additionally, researchers discovered that the use of large generative AI models is more energy-intensive than smaller models specifically designed for particular tasks. This study reveals the carbon emissions of AI and shows some concerning upward trends.
