Join a live and interactive discussion with enterprise leaders from IBM, Ford Motor Company, AstraZeneca, Google, Wells Fargo, Rabobank, JS Held, and ARC

OKLAHOMA CITY, OK, UNITED STATES, December 11, 2024 /EINPresswire.com/ -- ARC, the most sustainable AI platform on the market, will be hosting a webinar to explore and better understand the tectonic shifts in energy and water consumption caused by training large AI language models (LLMs). Major LLMs are trained on massive GPU clusters running hundreds of thousands of graphics processing units (GPUs), which consume staggering amounts of energy and copious amounts of precious water to run and cool.

A single prompt in ChatGPT consumes 100 times more energy than a single Google search (Source: Columbia Climate School). Bain estimates that by 2030, the carbon emissions of a single IT department will increase 3 times where it is today.

The severity of the AI/IT environmental impact and how it fits into overall sustainability strategies,
