Driven by the artificial intelligence frenzy, Microsoft is internally projecting that water use at its data centers will more than double by 2030 from 2020, including in places that face shortages.

Abstract: The rapid adoption of blockchain technology and generative AI contributes significantly to global electricity consumption, raising concerns about environmental sustainability. The first step ...

A new study estimates the environmental impact of AI in 2025 and calls for more transparency from companies on their pollution and water consumption. A new study estimates the environmental impact of ...

While many Brunonians have their go-to spots for alcoholic beverages, a group of Brown researchers added their own makeshift bar to the mix. But once inside the bar, participants of a new research ...

Researchers created scalable quantum circuits capable of simulating fundamental nuclear physics on more than 100 qubits. These circuits efficiently prepare complex initial states that classical ...

New research from UBC Okanagan mathematically demonstrates that the universe cannot be simulated. Using Gödel’s incompleteness theorem, scientists found that reality requires “non-algorithmic ...

If such a simulation were possible, the simulated universe could itself give rise to life, which in turn might create its own simulation. This recursive possibility makes it seem highly unlikely that ...

If your data centers are guzzling more water than a major US city, you face a choice: come clean to the public and risk bad press — or hide the evidence to keep key figures in the green. For Amazon ...

THE DOWNSIDES OF SPRAY DRONES Although using drones in agricultural settings can be positive, there are some downsides you should consider While there are many benefits associated with using spray ...

The consortium running the European Space Agency's (ESA) Euclid mission has published the most extensive simulation of the cosmos to date. The modeling was based on algorithms developed by UZH ...
