The Energy Challenge of AI

AI models, especially large language models (LLMs), require enormous computational power for training and deployment. This translates to significant energy consumption and, consequently, a substantial carbon footprint1. For instance, training a…
AI: Tool or Being? Navigating the Future of Artificial Intelligence

AI: Tool or Being? Navigating the Future of Artificial Intelligence

The debate over how to perceive AI is ongoing, as it blurs the line between tool and entity. Viewing AI as a tool offers human control, efficiency, and problem-solving potential. Yet, recognizing AI as a potential being prompts ethical considerations and acknowledges its evolving capabilities. Striking a balance involves transparency, collaboration, and ethical frameworks to navigate AI's future responsibly.
Universal Basic Compute: Democratizing the Digital Age with Processing Power for All

Universal Basic Compute: Democratizing the Digital Age with Processing Power for All

The digital revolution has made computing power a necessity, but many lack access, leading to the concept of Universal Basic Compute (UBC). Modeled after Universal Basic Income, UBC would provide processing power, storage, and software access to all, leveling the innovation field, bridging the digital gap, and boosting education and digital participation. Challenges include implementation, digital literacy, and sustainability, but UBC presents a unique opportunity to ensure an inclusive digital future.
