A few days ago a link to an article was shared here. It was about how people say ‘AI’ has done much good to solve climate change, but those accomplishments are due to ‘classic’ non-LLM machine learning. If anyone still has that link around. Would you please share it?
Thank you!

@zipkid I think I saw something about that too. I can’t find the specific article, but I think it was probably related to this new report by Ketan Joshi. Wired has a piece about it.

“Joshi is the author of a new report, released Monday with support from several environmental organizations, that attempts to quantify some of the most high-profile claims made about how AI will save the planet.”
