The Server Vault: AI Sustainability Escape Room

Lock A: Power Readout Rank

Arrange the power channels in descending order of percentage usage.

Manufacturing 22%

Compute 49%

Idle 29%

Citation: BLOOM model lifecycle phases, Hugging Face Model Cards. Compute, Idle, Manufacturing represents typical data center allocation.

Click the city with the lowest carbon intensity. Hint: look for hydro and geothermal.

Citation: Carbon Intensity API (carbonintensity.org) and OpenELEC research. Data center grid carbon varies 10x by region.

Combine the two key numbers from the previous locks to unlock the door.

First value (Manufacturing %): --

Second value (Iceland CO2): --

Enter the 4-digit code:

Idle infrastructure is 29% of model carbon footprint. Most teams never look. You did.

You have learned where AI really runs and what it costs the planet.
