和ChatGPT聊天费水？最新研究发现

今年以来，人工智能（AI）的热潮席卷全球。不过，您知道和人工智能对话还会消耗水资源吗？AI费水背后的原因是什么？科技巨头们每年会消耗多少水资源？

如果一个用户向ChatGPT问了10到50个问题，可能会消耗掉500毫升的水。而如果成千上万的用户同时向AI提问，这背后会有多少水资源被消耗掉就难以估计了。

为什么AI会消耗水资源？

训练和运行AI大模型通常需要数以万计的服务器来提供计算资源、存储资源以及低延迟的网络连接，这些服务器会以集群的方式部署在名为“数据中心”的物理场所，当它们一起工作时，会在短时间内产生高度集中的热量，所以需要大量的水资源进行冷却。

以微软和谷歌为例，2022年，微软一共用掉了约17亿加仑（约64亿升）水，相当于可以填满约2500个奥运会规格的泳池；而谷歌的数据中心和办公室则用掉了总计56亿加仑（约212亿升）水，相当于8500个奥运会规格的游泳池。

数据显示，现在AI所需要的算力预计每100天就会翻一番，并且在未来五年内可能会增长超过一百万倍。研究人员预计，到2027年，全球范围内的AI需求可能会需要消耗掉66亿立方米的水资源，几乎相当于美国华盛顿州全年的取水量。

美国圣克拉拉大学马库拉应用伦理学中心高级主管安·斯基特：我认为很快就会有监管机构开始行动，而欧盟明年就会提高相关的监管要求，要求公司披露它们的用水情况。
