Environmental activist Erin Brockovich, best known for exposing a major water contamination case against Pacific Gas and Electric Company that later inspired the Oscar-winning film "Erin Brockovich," is turning her attention toward AI. Brockovich is specifically sounding the alarm about massive data centers powering tools like OpenAI's ChatGPT, Google's Gemini and other generative AI systems.
According to a recent report from Newsweek, Brockovich is asking Americans to help crowdsource information about proposed and existing AI data centers across the country through a new public map initiative.
