AI researchers need to stop hiding the climate toll of their work | MIT Technology Review Skip to Content The Allen Institute for Artificial Intelligence (AI2) is proposing a new way to incentivize energy-efficient machine learning. Exploding footprint: More researchers are sounding the alarm about the growing costs of deep learning. In 2018, OpenAI published a study showing that the computational resources required to train large models was doubling every three to four months. In June, another study found that developing large-scale natural-language processing models, in particular, could pro
