“The development of AI presents significant environmental dangers, with its massive water, minerals and energy consumption exacerbating climate change and environmental degradation.
While AI is a digital technology, its physical infrastructure depends on gold for performance and reliability. While its cooling systems generate immense heat, requiring billions of gallons of water, often in water stressed regions, affecting local communities.”
