Google and Amazon this week reported sharp increases in greenhouse gas emissions, driven by the frantic construction of artificial intelligence infrastructure that is pushing the tech giants further from their carbon neutrality pledges. Amazon's emissions, published on Wednesday, have risen 58 percent over the same period, and more than 16 percent last year, despite a pledge to reach carbon neutrality by 2040.
