Artificial intelligence is powerful—but energy-hungry. Modern AI systems, from recommendation engines to chatbots like ChatGPT, require massive computing resources, relying on sprawling data centers that consume gigawatts of electricity. Compare that to the human brain, which operates on just 20 watts—less than a standard lightbulb. So, what if AI could be as energy-efficient as the […]
Artificial intelligence is on track to become a $4.8 trillion industry by 2033 — roughly the size of Germany’s economy — but its benefits are far from evenly distributed, according to a new report from the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). While AI promises major productivity boosts and is driving digital innovation […]
