Since 2022, generative AI, which can produce text, images, or other data, has undergone rapid growth, including OpenAI’s ChatGPT. Training these AI tools requires feeding the models a large amount of data, a process that is energy-intensive. Hugging Face, an AI-developing company based in New York reported that its multilingual text-generating AI tool consumed about 433 megawatt-hours during training, enough to power 40 average American homes for a year.
“The result of making these tools more efficient and accessible can be that we just allow more applications of it and more people to use it,” de Vries says.
