The Environmental Impacts of Language Model Training Keep Rising Now is the Time to Catch Impacts on the Rebound

The paper analyzes the environmental footprint of machine learning model training, focusing on large language models and their hardware. It finds that energy use and environmental impacts have risen exponentially over the past decade, even when employing carbon‑efficient electricity and more efficient hardware. The study argues that optimization strategies alone cannot curb these impacts due to a rebound effect, and stresses the need to evaluate hardware life‑cycle impacts and integrate environmental metrics into NLP research practices.

LLM-Powered Predictive Decision-Making for Sustainable Data Center Operations

The paper presents an LLM-based predictive scheduling system that forecasts execution time and energy consumption from source code, aiming to improve data center sustainability. By integrating these predictions into a real-time GPU allocation algorithm, the system reduces both energy use and queuing delays. In a collaboration with a data center, the approach achieved a 32% drop in energy consumption and a 30% reduction in waiting time.
