- So, 1000 prompts/person/day increases the average per-capita energy by 25% and that's not "a big deal"?
- Everyone's like, it only increases per capita emissions by 20-30% as though that's not the single biggest increase

- So like a 0.5% increase per person per day in consumption? That's a LOT. What is this person smoking?
- Nah dude. That’s a cooked outlook. Thanks for the perspective.
- fps gamers complaining about chat gpt's electricity consumption will never stop being funny
- Not everyone uses ChatGPT et al at a micro level. Corps are touting AI as the savior of everything, & building their SOPs around it. 3 Wh IS tiny, a single person won't do damage but big tech corps can.
