'We're not going to hit the climate goals anyway': Eric Schmidt has a plan to drive sustainable data center and AI development - and it involves more AI

Schmidt stated, ‘My own opinion is that we're not going to hit the climate goals anyway, because we're not organized to do it.’ He expressed more confidence in AI's potential solutions for energy issues over restraining technology to meet climate goals.
