Abstract

Our lives today increasingly depend on data centres for simple activities like writing emails or watching videos. The arrival of large language models such as ChatGPT has caused a significant uptick in the use of digital services that also depend on data centres. Eugenie Dugoua discusses what this dependence means for the environment in a Q&A with Anna Bevan for LSE’s IQ Podcast.
