[Preprint] Making AI Less ''Thirsty'': Uncovering and Addressing the Secret Water Footprint of AI

32
/ 100
Emerging

This project helps data center operators and AI researchers understand and quantify the often-overlooked water consumption associated with training large AI models. By inputting information about AI training jobs, it estimates their hourly carbon efficiency and on-site water usage effectiveness. This tool is designed for sustainability officers, environmental impact analysts, and researchers in AI or data center operations.

No commits in the last 6 months.

Use this if you need to calculate the environmental footprint, specifically water and carbon usage, for training large AI models and want to identify more sustainable training schedules or locations.

Not ideal if you are looking to optimize the water usage of small, local machine learning tasks or general computing, rather than large-scale AI model training in data centers.
