To answer this question and unpack the relationship between AI and the environment, Euronews Tech Talks sits down with Jonathan Niesel, leader of the information technology department at Greenpeace Germany and Maja Kirkeby, researcher in the energy consumption of software at Roskilde University in Denmark.
