Electricity and AI Basics
Electricity is created by the flow of electrons through this.
What is a conductor?
This device converts the voltage of electricity to a higher level to transport or a lower level for safe use.
What is a transformer?
Electricity expanded the workable hours of the day for many people by making this more reliably available at night.
What is artificial light?
Electricity made people reliant on this infrastructure system.
What is a power grid?
The production of electricity has historically caused pollution because power plants burn these fuels.
What are fossil fuels?
AI is trained using large amounts of this.
What is data?
AI infrastructure depends on servers, internet access, and large amounts of data, housed in these facilities.
What are data centers?
This term is used to describe the expansion of cities, which electricity contributed largely to.
What is urbanization?
Since AI is trained on existing data, it opens the question that is AI training violating this law.
What is copyright law?
AI data centers use large amounts of this resource to keep servers cool.
What is water?
This is the process where an AI learns from examples or patterns in data.
What is machine learning?
Electricity is accessed through power grids, while AI is usually accessed through this.
What is the internet?
AI is being used in the medical field for early detection of what disease?
What is cancer?
AI may eliminate many of these through automation and increasing productivity.
What are jobs?
AI needs lots of water for its cooling systems because servers produce this while running.
What is heat?
The entire system that created and delivers electricity is called this.
What is a power grid?
This company was responsible for much of the early infrastructure development for electricity.
What is Westinghouse Electrical Corporation?
This is used to recommend videos, posts, news articles, to a person based on their online history.
What is an algorithm?
AI can be used to create fake images, fake videos, and fake news which is also called this.
The burning of fossil fuels to generate electricity and power AI data centers can cause this global problem.
What is climate change?
This type of AI is used to create new things.
What is generative AI?
This device is what the data AI uses is stored on.
Electricity created a need for safety rules about wiring, fires, and shocks, while AI is creating a need for this with it's use in education, privacy, and work.
AI can make unfair or incorrect responses if the information it was trained on contains this.
What is bias?
The harvesting of resources used for both generating electricity and building computers can cause this.
What is pollution?
