A new finding demonstrates the brutal carbon math of AI video: a 6-second clip can burn 4x the energy of a 3-second one. I’ve updated the What Uses More digital footprint calculator to show why “just a bit longer” gets disproportionately expensive.

A chart from Delavande 2025 showing that GPU energy usage scales quadratically with the number of AI video frames generated.

I've updated the What Uses More calculator with new research this week that makes the environmental footprint of AI video potentially far higher than I thought. On Tuesday Julien Delavande, Régis Pierrard, and Dr. Sasha Luccioni published important research showing that doubling the duration of a video generated from a text prompt doesn't just double the energy required, but in fact quadruples it. So if a 3-second clip uses 130 watt-hours (the equivalent of running a light bulb for two hou…

On yesterday's Teaching, Learning, and Everything Else podcast, I talked about AI's impact on the environment and classrooms—and argued that it isn’t reinventing education so much as exposing bad habits we should’ve let go years ago link…

Quote: "Instead of thinking of AI transforming pedagogy, I think of AI pointing out problems that were already there. We know there's better ways to teach. We know that project-oriented, individualized learning is better than regurgitation. We know that no one outside of academia writes five paragraph essays anymore. Writing has become discursive and dialogic, and it's dispersed through all these different social media and work contexts. There's lots of reasons to validate writing as a form of …

The impact of AI on education may ultimately have less to do with AI itself and more with the habits it forces us to shed, both in classrooms and in our digital lives. This week I talked with Lew Ludwig’s Denison University students about generative AI's environmental footprint and was a featured guest on Bart Everson's Teaching, Learning, and Everything Else podcast at Xavier University. Bart and I dug into the “IMPACT RISK” framework, in which every letter of the acronym represents a d…

Proud to have my research featured alongside Sasha Luccione/Hugging Face Noman Bashir/MIT Marissa Loewen in this AP story on ways to reduce your AI climate impact—and a surprising blind spot most users have about their digital footprint.
