Reid Hoffman on AI’s environmental impact and the path to sustainability
One of the biggest debates in the AI revolution is its environmental impact – especially the vast amounts of energy we need to run AI, and the carbon emissions that could follow. Yet AI is also a super powerful tool for smarter, cleaner energy use around the world. Reid Hoffman, co-founder of LinkedIn and Inflection AI and friend of our show, joins to share his take. He weighs AI’s potential for environmental help and harm, depending how humans deploy it.
