Google has imposed limits on Meta’s use of its Gemini artificial intelligence models after the social media giant sought more computing capacity than the company was able to provide. The restrictions, which reportedly came into effect around March, prevented Google from meeting the full AI computing capacity requested by Meta.Meta has been among the largest customers for Google’s AI services, and its exceptionally high demand for Gemini models made it particularly vulnerable to capacity shortages.The constraints have prompted Meta to encourage employees to use AI resources more efficiently, including reducing consumption of AI tokens, the units used to measure and manage the usage of generative AI models. Do you think that AI infrastructure is the greatest polluters of our environment due to the resources needed ?
