Google Reduces Energy Consumption for Gemini Applications by a Factor of 33x

Google, a global tech giant, is making a significant impact on the future of sustainable technology. Under the leadership of Thomas Kurian, Google Cloud has effectively harnessed its technology to better serve its customers while minimising its environmental footprint.

In a remarkable achievement, Google has reduced the power consumption for Gemini apps' text prompts by 33 times. This reduction in power consumption applies to all aspects of the Gemini apps, marking a significant step towards energy efficiency. The reduction in power consumption is not the only stride made by Google; the company has also reduced its carbon footprint for operations related to Gemini apps by 44 times.

The power of innovation encourages pursuing big ideas, trying new approaches, and seeking better ways forward. Google is no stranger to this philosophy, as it continues to invest in bold innovation to drive the AI revolution forward. The company's approach to reducing power consumption for Gemini apps involves examining all technology in its stack that could impact the process.

The specific employees who published the blog post about the 33x reduction in power consumption for Gemini app text queries and a 44-fold decrease in carbon footprint are not mentioned in the available search results. However, the details of the reduction in carbon footprint have been shared in a blog post by Google executives.

The reduction in power consumption and carbon footprint is not only good for the environment but also significant for the future of sustainable technology. Google's efforts are paving the way for other tech companies to follow suit, ensuring that the AI revolution will not contribute to global warming.
