DIGITAL FUTURES IS AI GOOD FOR THE PLANET? - ...

Artificial intelligence (AI) is presented as a solution to the greatest challenges of our time
from global pandemics and chronic diseases to cybersecurity threats and the climate crisis. But
AI also contributes to the climate crisis by running on technology that depletes scarce
resources and by relying on data centres that demand excessive energy use. Is AI Good for the
Planet? brings the climate crisis to the centre of debates around AI  exposing its
environmental costs and forcing us to reconsider our understanding of the technology. It
reveals why we should no longer ignore the environmental problems generated by AI. Embracing a
green agenda for AI that puts the climate crisis at centre stage is our urgent priority.
Engaging and passionately written  this book is essential reading for scholars and students of
AI  environmental studies  politics  and media studies and for anyone interested in the
connections between technology and the environment.
