In a recent interview, singer-songwriter SZA reportedly linked the rise of artificial intelligence (AI) to broader systemic issues like environmental racism, urging tech companies to address the disproportionate pollution burden on marginalized communities.
SZA isn’t buying into the AI hype—and she’s calling out its devastating environmental cost. In a fiery series of Instagram posts this week, the Grammy-winning singer condemned artificial intelligence programs like ChatGPT and Elon Musk’s Grok for exacerbating pollution in marginalized communities, declaring: “The only AI I’m using is Actual Imagination.”
On Tuesday (July 15), SZA called attention to the hidden toll of AI infrastructure, particularly in Memphis, where Musk’s x AI recently opened a data center. “Please google how much energy and pollution it takes to run AI,” she urged followers, reposting a comment highlighting how tech corporations exploit low-income areas for cheap resources while leaving residents to suffer the consequences.
Memphis activists have long warned about the center’s excessive water usage and pollution risks. “They treat southwest Memphis as just a corporate watering hole,” KeShaun Pearson of Memphis Community Against Pollution told TIME in 2023. SZA echoed their concerns, labeling the practice “environmental racism”—the systemic siting of polluting industries in communities of color.
SZA didn’t mince words about AI’s human cost: “AI doesn’t give a fuck if you live or die,” she wrote. “There is a price for convenience, and Black and Brown [people] will pay the brunt of it every time.” She criticized the public’s dependence on AI, warning, “We won’t get it til it’s too late.”
Her posts resonated with fans, sparking discussions about tech accountability. When resharing her message on Instagram Stories, SZA added: “I really meant this and I’m deeply concerned .. pls care.”
SZA’s outcry reflects a growing movement to expose AI’s environmental injustice. From energy-guzzling data centers to mineral mining for tech hardware, the industry’s footprint disproportionately harms vulnerable populations—a reality the singer insists shouldn’t be ignored. As she signed off: “Love y’all regardless.”
