Ecologists estimate that up to 13 million tons of toxic electronic waste will be generated annually due to the development of artificial intelligence. Projections indicate that the volume of discarded computer equipment will triple over the next twenty-five years. The use of Nvidia processors is already causing environmental harm comparable to emissions from a Russian coal company.
