Artificial intelligence (AI), and particularly generative AI (GenAI), has expanded rapidly in recent years. Although its environmental impacts might be significant, they remain poorly understood and the application of life cycle assessment (LCA) to AI technologies remains in its early stages. The aim of this study is to quantify the life cycle climate impact of an AI-generated radio station named KSPR, marking the first LCA of a system composed of a variety of AI models.
