At the World Economic Forum in Davos, OpenAI's CEO Sam Altman highlighted the urgent need for a significant energy breakthrough to sustain the development of artificial intelligence (AI).
He pointed out that expansive models like ChatGPT demand immense energy resources, operating on thousands of graphic processors.
Altman's vision includes either transforming AI training methodologies or identifying sustainable and robust energy sources. He is particularly interested in exploring the potential of nuclear fusion energy.
In 2021, the OpenAI CEO personally invested $375 million in Helion, a startup working on such innovative technologies. However, the practicality and viability of harnessing nuclear fusion as an energy source are still subjects of ongoing exploration and debate.
