Founding partner of Alinea Ventures, Jessie Lam was in Paris last week speaking about the importance of responsible building of AI infrastructure to last generations. The energy demand to power electricity-hungry data centers will increase from 3% of total US power demand today to between 11 and 12 percent by 2030, requiring over $500B in data center infrastructure alone. It is of vital importance that we develop this infrastructure using clean energy and develop efficiencies in technology to potentially require less energy to achieve the same results. Jessie also shared her ideas around recycling of data sets and computations and sharing it as a public good, which could potentially require less computational power than currently linearly required. We have an opportunity to build the next generation of infrastructure in a smart and thoughtful way, so let's not waste it. #climatetech #womeninventure #ai #datacenters Toan Huynh
Thank you so much to Max S. and CC Forum "Investment in Sustainable Development" for allowing me to share my thoughts and investment thesis around AI and how to be responsible stewards of our planet, to hundreds of European investors in Paris last week! The energy demand to power electricity-hungry data centers will increase from 3% of total US power demand today to between 11 and 12 percent by 2030, requiring over $500B in data center infrastructure alone. It is of vital importance that we develop this infrastructure using clean energy and develop efficiencies in technology to potentially require less energy to achieve the same results. I shared my vision around recycling of data sets and computations and sharing it as a public good, which could potentially require less computational power than currently linearly required. It was so motivating to meet so many action-oriented people trying to preserve the world. We can accomplish far-reaching progress together. #womeninvc #climatetech #venturecapital #ai Alinea Ventures Toan Huynh
