As AI demand skyrockets, the need for sustainable infrastructure is crucial. Our CIO Elio V. mentions in the article that data centres must become more efficient and reduce their environmental impact to keep pace with the rapid expansion of AI. At Nscale, we’re proud to be part of the solution, helping drive green innovation in data centres. Learn more about our data centre here: https://lnkd.in/ePAB9UgC

The UK has officially classified data centres as Critical National Infrastructure, placing them on par with sectors like energy and water. Check out what Nscale’s Chief Project Officer, Alex Sharp, says about how the rise of data centre infrastructure and government support could shape the UK's future, helping to build data centres that serve both progress and the planet. https://lnkd.in/ex7wdC9k #DataCentre #Infrastructure #AI #Sustainability

Last week I attended GREENTECH FESTIVAL at the Ministy of Sound. Not only did it take me back to the 90s, but it did start me thinking about how tech really could be the answer to a lot of the world’s environmental issues. I got to hear from the inspiring Mary Robinson, ex Irish President and now Chair of The Elders (look it up – it’s amazing) and six tech slammers who pitched their start up ideas in less than three minutes (all of which were inspiring in their aim to make a change). 🚲 🐛 🎇 There were a lot of bold statements made during the event, but the ones that stood out to me were (full disclaimer – I’ve not fact checked any of them so can’t validate the accuracy): 💰 $1.2trillion is spent by governments into fossil fuel subsidies – imagine what could be done if that was redirected? 👯 Leadership needs to change. We can’t rely on governments and big business. Change comes from day to day people doing things differently. 🏭 We need to change the narrative around sustainability. We label good products (zero emissions) but not the bad ones (fossil fuel). The next time you look at your investment portfolio, stop looking at the good ones and start looking at the bad ones. 🍏 RegTech is a thing. We heard from a start up who has created an application to show when a company is greenwashing. It can be used by regulators and brands. My favourite session was on the impact of AI on sustainability. The power requirement to drive AI is scary. 💻 It’s estimated that by 2027 the AI sector could consume the same annual energy demand of the Netherlands. Think about that the next time you ask ChatGPT something. And finally hats off to Nscale and VIRTUS Data Centres who are both working on different ways of powering the next generation of data centres.

Day 2 is nearly complete at the AI Hardware & Edge AI Summit. Our COO, Karl Havard explored the critical components that are the driving force behind the performance of Generative AI. Coming up is our hands-on workshop experience on optimising your AI workload with Elio V., Kian Mohadjerin and Jörg Roskowetz. If you're still around, pop over to our booth to chat and pick up your goody bag or sign up for our networking event at 6 pm tonight on the Swapcard app. AI Hardware & Systems #AIHWE #AMD #AI #GenerativeAI #Workshop

Last month, we saw a number of Big Tech companies, including Alphabet, Amazon and Meta, share their earning results. Alongside this group, Nvidia and AMD both shared their impressive Q2 performances where Nvidia reported a revenue of $30 billion and AMD announced a revenue of $5.8 billion. These earnings highlight a key trend: the relentless pursuit of AI supremacy.  One thing is for sure: while Nvidia's strong performance showcases its dominance in AI hardware, the competition is far from settled. The growing demand for AI chips is fuelling a diverse AI ecosystem, with AMD advocating for open-source and accessible solutions. This dynamic competition is essential for preventing monopolies and driving innovation, ensuring AI advancements benefit everyone.
