My LinkedIn feed is full of one question: "Has AGI arrived? In the latest edition of Technology Bytes, I ask a different one: If AI is now intelligent enough for us to debate AGI, can it solve a simpler problem for itself? Can AI become cheaper to run, lower…
I’m looking forward to speaking at Green IO London 2026 on: Green Agentic AI: Optimizing Cost, Energy and Carbon Agentic AI can consume orders of magnitude more compute than a simple chat interaction. As agents reason, call tools, retrieve context, retry…
What if AI, and the data center behind it, had a voice? What would it say about the jobs we fear losing? The energy and water it consumes? The infrastructure we keep building? And our relentless demand for more intelligence, more speed, and more compute? I…
Day 25 of Green, Efficient AI is live: The Interface Sets the Bill. A user creates intent. The interface translates that intent into inference demand. The model produces the bill. Two products can wrap the same underlying model and produce inference bills…
Before we build the next AI data center, we should answer 8 questions. Not after construction. Not in the next sustainability report. Before the shovel goes into the ground. 1️⃣ How much water will it use — and from where? 2️⃣ How much electricity will it…
Day 24 of Green, Efficient AI is live: The Data That Trained It. Every AI model remembers the data that trained it. Few teams remember the footprint of producing that data. The most expensive part of a training project can happen before training ever starts.…
Day 23 of Green, Efficient AI is live: The Model Keeps Its Environmental Receipts. Every model in production carries a receipt for what it cost to exist. Training was a paid event. The footprint closed the moment the run finished, and the model has been…

Speaking at Google I/O on Lean Agentic AI: as organizations scale from a handful of agents to thousands, systems must be efficient by design — across cost, energy, and carbon. Slides and demo available on GitHub.
It was a pleasure speaking at the Google I/O event on Lean Agentic AI. As organizations move from deploying a handful of AI agents to thousands, efficiency can no longer be an afterthought. We need to design agentic systems that are efficient by design—across…
Tomorrow, I'll be speaking at Google I/O Connect, Bengaluru on a topic I've become deeply passionate about: Lean Agentic AI. We're entering an era where organizations will deploy not one or two agents—but thousands. The question is no longer: can we build…
Day 19 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Test Tail. A team spent six months bringing production AI costs down. The playbook worked — production inference became dramatically cheaper. The monthly bill barely moved. The gap was hiding in plain sight. Every…
Day 18 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Forever Data. Every AI system carries two footprints. The work it performs, and the data it leaves behind. The second one rarely gets named. A B2B platform running a retrieval assistant found that three routine…
Day 17 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Invisible Payload. A user asks a support agent to reset their password — seven words, roughly ten tokens. The trace shows the model actually receives thousands of tokens. A system prompt written months ago. Every…
Day 16 of Green, Efficient AI is live — Every Guardrail Is a Call. The most overlooked line item in an AI system is the safety wrap. So why do most teams run four or five model-based checks on every request without ever costing them? In many production…
A session at the Green Software Development Karlsruhe meetup on connecting Software Carbon Intensity (SCI) to agentic systems — why cost, energy, and carbon are deeply connected but not the same thing, and how to start measuring.
Day 15 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Route Before the Model. The model is usually the most expensive component in an AI system. So why does every request still reach it? In many production pipelines, the answer is reflex, not architecture. A telecom…
Day 14 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Grid You Didn't Choose. Most production AI runs in a region somebody picked years ago, on hardware procured for a different workload, and on schedules chosen for operational convenience rather than carbon…

Day 6 of Green, Efficient AI is live — The Cheapest Tokens Are the Ones You Never Retrieve. A team was sending their model an 8,600-token prompt to answer a question whose actual answer was one paragraph. Twenty passages retrieved. One useful. Nineteen paid…
Day 5 of Green, Efficient AI is live — Spend Tokens Like They Cost Money. What if the largest pool of waste in your AI system is not the model you chose, or the calls you made, but the words you packed into every prompt? Most production prompts are two to ten…
Day 4 of Green, Efficient AI is live - Make the Call Count Smaller. The cheapest, fastest, lowest-carbon inference is the one the system never made. Most teams focus on model cost. Bigger model. Smaller model. Better prompt. But one of the biggest…
A session with the APAC AI and Sustainability Council on why AI budgets bust at enterprise scale, why cost and environmental footprint rise together — and why no technical fix works without a single accountable owner and board-level attention.
Every token your AI generates has a price tag. Three, actually. There is the bill — from your model provider, your hyperscaler, or your own inference infrastructure. There is the energy drawn from the grid to produce it. And there is the carbon released into…
What does Google’s Gemma 4 release actually change for Sustainable AI? Most conversations will focus on benchmarks. That’s not where the impact is. The shift is architectural. Google DeepMind released Gemma 4 with four open models: → E2B and E4B (effective…
