AI is huge business. But it’s also having a huge effect on our carbon emissions: The storage, cooling, and processing power required to train a large language model AI can produce as much CO2 as driving over a million miles in a family car.

In this episode, we’re talking to HPE Chief Technologist Matt Armstrong-Barnes about the concept of sustainable AI, and how making strategic decisions early in the design process – as well as proper data management – can help save organisations a fortune, as well as to potentially reduce CO2 emissions.

This is Technology Now, a weekly show from Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Every week we look at a story that's been making headlines, take a look at the technology behind it, and explain why it matters to organisations and what we can learn from it.
