All of us must do our bit to counteract the effects of climate change, no matter how small. This, I firmly believe. Meta appears to be taking this principle to heart, as it's proudly announced that it's using its own mix of AI-optimised, lower-carbon, "green concrete" to build the floor of its Rosemount data center.
The company says it has developed an open-source AI tool to design concrete mixes that are stronger and more sustainable. The efforts are part of a collaboration with cement manufacturer Amrize and the University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign in order to "accelerate the discovery of new concrete mixtures that meet traditional requirements alongside newer sustainability needs."
