AI's Growing Energy and Water Demands

AI's Growing Energy and Water Demands

AI is becoming a big part of our lives, but it needs a lot of energy and water to work.

The computers that run AI, called data centres, use lots of electricity and water to stay cool.

This is causing problems because these data centres are often built in places where there isn't enough water or electricity.

In India, the government is trying to figure out how to manage this.

They need to make sure there is enough clean energy and water for these data centres without hurting the environment or the people who need these resources.

Some companies are trying to use nuclear power and recycled water to help, but there are still many challenges to solve.
