Sam Alman says - Their GPU's are melting !!
Stop making AI-generated Ghibli images .They come at a cost!
I won’t lie—I use AI for almost everything these days. And honestly, I was unaware of the environmental impact.
Then OpenAI launched a new version where people could generate Ghibli-style images… and the internet exploded.
Even Sam Altman tweeted: "Our GPUs are melting."
Why are GPUs “melting”?
When millions of people generate AI images at the same time, it puts massive pressure on data centers. GPUs (the hardware powering AI) run at full capacity, generating extreme heat.
How does this impact the environment?
To prevent overheating, AI data centers use water-based cooling systems. Here’s the hidden cost:
● 1 ChatGPT search = 50ml of freshwater + 10W electricity
● 1 AI-generated image = 5 to 50 liters of water (a full day’s drinking water!)
● AI data centers = As much power as small cities
I get it—we can’t stop using AI. But if we use it less, even that helps.
Next time, ask yourself: Is it necessary?
Let’s be mindful. AI is powerful, but responsible usage matters.
