Energy Consumption
Risk Domain
The development and operation of AI systems causing environmental harm, such as through energy consumption of data centers, or material and carbon footprints associated with AI hardware.
Some learning algorithms, including deep learning, utilize iterative learning processes [23]. This approach results in high energy consumption.
Entity: Who or what caused the harm
Intent: Whether the harm was intentional or accidental
Timing: Whether the risk is pre- or post-deployment
