UN chief urges AI companies to focus on renewable energy

The head of the United Nations calls on the surging artificial intelligence sector to prioritize sustainable energy for running power-hungry data centers. Secretary-General Antonio Guterres says a typical AI data center — sites where data is processed — uses the same amount of electricity as 100,000 regular homes. "This is not sustainable," Guterres says. "The technology sector must be out front. Today I call on every major tech firm to power all data centers with 100 percent renewables by 2030," he adds.
