ABSTRACT: Artificial intelligence (AI) has become an integral part of modern society, influencing every aspect of people’s lives, from education, to business, to healthcare, to name a few. However, the widespread adoption of AI carries an environmental cost, as training and using AI generates a significant carbon footprint. The environmental cost of AI should not be disregarded, as the use of AI is increasing exponentially. Yet, in this research I argue that AI users do not seem to recognize this problem. I discuss reasons as to why users might underestimate the carbon footprint of AI. And I highlight possible solutions to this pressing problem. I believe that with more research and collaboration, progress can be made toward reducing the environmental impact of AI.
