‘AI, data, calculation: what infrastructure in a decarbonised world?’ – 1 October

The Shift Project‘s digital team will present its final report Intelligence artificielle, données, capacités de calcul : quelles infrastructures dans un monde décarboné ?

At a time when artificial intelligence (and its electricity consumption) is a hot topic in the public debate, The Shift Project offers its own perspective: a physical and systemic view of the economy.

– What energy-carbon trajectories are being driven by the data center and computing capacity sectors? Which of these are physically feasible in the future and compatible with energy-carbon constraints?

– How much leeway do we have to steer our technoloyl choices towards AI that is compatible with energy-carbon constraints?

During this event, The Shift Project will present its responses, the fruit of work launched by the think tank, at the end of 2024, on impacts and trajectories.
