Abstract

What's more, this projection was made before the sudden explosion of generative AI. The amount of computing resources used to train the largest AI models has been doubling roughly every 6 months for more than the past decade. At this rate, by 2030 training a single artificial-intelligence model would take one hundred times as much computing resources as the combined annual resources of the current top 10 super-computers. Simply put, computing will require colossal amounts of power, soon exceeding what our planet can provide.

鞋盒中的数据中心:IMEC 利用超导体缩小计算机的计划
更重要的是,这一预测是在生成式人工智能突然爆发之前做出的。过去十多年来,用于训练最大人工智能模型的计算资源大约每 6 个月翻一番。按照这个速度,到 2030 年,训练一个人工智能模型所需的计算资源将是目前 10 大超级计算机年资源总和的 100 倍。简而言之,计算将需要巨大的能量,很快就会超过我们地球所能提供的能量。
