Google DeepMind chief Demis Hassabis says concerns over artificial intelligence’s energy use must be weighed against the long-term benefits the technology could deliver in climate and grid efficiency. Speaking at the All-In Summit, Hassabis says his team is focused on making models both powerful and efficient because Google must serve billions of users every day at low cost and speed. He notes that techniques like distillation, where large models train smaller ones to mimic their performance, have already delivered big leaps. “Over time, if you look at the progress of the last two years, the model efficiencies are like 10x,…

PCs and the internet raised productivity by 13% in 15 years. JPMorgan says “AI has the potential to drive productivity growth…
