The real energy use of agentic AI"My personal and professional AI usage now emits a bit more per year than running an electric clothes dryer, and about half as much as driving an electric car 11,500 miles in California or taking one San Francisco to New York round-trip flight in economy. It is about 8% of the annual emissions of a typical American gasoline car, and roughly 2% of the average American’s ~18-ton annual greenhouse gas footprint."https://www.theclimatebrink.com/p/the-real-energy-use-of-agentic-ai#ai #climatecrisis
