DeepMind to cut UK's energy bill by 10% using artificial intelligence Access AI
The AI company is in the early stages of partnering with the UK's National Grid DeepMind is in talks with the UK's National Grid to boost energy efficiency using artificial intelligence. The AI company, acquired by Google for £400 million in 2014, has developed algorithms that can anticipate energy demand and supply. These algorithms are already being used within Google's own data centres, allowing the tech giant to cut energy by 40%, but they are now in talks with the National Grid, which owns and operates energy infrastructure across the UK. DeepMind is offering AI-powered solutions that could help balance energy supply and demand across the nation. "We're early stages talking to National Grid and other big providers about how we could look at the sorts of problems they have," Demis Hassabis, DeepMind's co-founder and CEO, told the Financial Times.
