It\u2019s a conversation that spans the environmental impact of AI, from carbon emissions to water usage, and examines whether the industry narrative matches reality.   They delve into the trade-offs between energy and water, the role of lifecycle analysis, and how approaches such as federated learning and smaller models could help. They also ask whether \u201cgreen AI\u201d is more than marketing hype, and what practical steps organisations can take to make AI genuinely sustainable.
