However, the growing computational demand for these new uses is leading to an increase of its environmental footprint (in terms of energy and water consumption, as well as carbon footprint), making it necessary to systematically assess their impact and implement measures to mitigate them. A recent research paper from a Capgemini R&amp;D team highlights that large generative AI models consume 4,600 times more energy than traditional models, with AI-related electricity usage potentially increasing 24.4 times in the most extreme scenario by 2030. Mitigating this environmental impact in the coming years will require a coordinated effort from all stakeholders across the AI value chain, cites the publication.<a href=\"#_ftn1\" id=\"_ftnref1\">[1]<\/a>&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The global Observatory on AI\u2019s environmental impact intends to address these challenges.
