arXiv:2606. 19799v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Efficiency and sustainability are critical considerations in the development and deployment of machine learning (ML) applications.
arXiv:2606. 07632v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Proper accounting of the energy requirements and environmental impact of artificial intelligence (AI) systems is necessary for researchers, developers, policy makers, and users to assess the barriers to building systems at scale.
arXiv:2608. 09998v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Artificial Intelligence (AI) and Machine Learning (ML) have become powerful tools for supporting and automating complex human tasks.
arXiv:2608. 17055v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Models (LLMs) are machine learning (ML) models that have an increasingly large carbon footprint through their development and use.
arXiv:2607. 01258v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The rapid advancement of Artificial Intelligence (AI) has been accompanied by significant increases in computational and environmental costs, driven by large-scale investments in AI infrastructure, hardware, and software.
arXiv:2607. 05408v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: The environmental impact of training large language models (LLMs) is increasingly scrutinised, yet most published estimates focus on operational energy and disclose little about manufacturing (embodied) emissions, water consumption, or the underlying highperformance computing (HPC) infrastructure.
arXiv:2606. 11215v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: Large Language Model (LLM) usage in recent years has become increasingly widespread in the Artificial Intelligence in Education (AIED) community.
arXiv:2602. 19789v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: This position paper argues that the machine learning community must move from preaching to practising data frugality for responsible artificial intelligence (AI) development.
arXiv:2606. 10660v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI inference services -- API subscriptions, enterprise chat tools, and SaaS products with embedded AI features -- fall unambiguously within Scope 3 Category 1 under the Corporate Sustainability Reporting Directive (CSRD), which requires disclosure for fiscal years starting January 2024.
arXiv:2601. 06649v2 Announce Type: replace-cross Abstract: Research in machine learning has questioned whether increases in training token counts reliably produce proportional performance gains in large language models.
arXiv:2606. 14707v1 Announce Type: cross Abstract: AI training and deployment consume substantial electricity, but carbon outcomes remain weakly integrated into routine model development decisions.
arXiv:2607. 26571v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: The operational energy consumption of large language model (LLM) inference is becoming an increasingly important component of the environmental footprint of deployed AI systems.
arXiv:2509. 24517v3 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Development of modern deep learning methods has been driven primarily by the push for improving model efficacy (accuracy metrics), leading to large-scale models that require massive computational resources and result in considerable carbon footprint across the model lifecycle.
