Ketan Joshi, who has been on the beat for a long time, actually looked into the story of if "AI" can "solve climate change". Conceptually as well as evidence based.
"We found that most of the ‘benefit’ tends to relate to older, smaller and leaner forms of machine learning, what has been called ‘traditional AI’, while we also know that most of the new harm is likely stemming from consumer generative AI over-deployment."
Super worth reading and sharing around.
