  1. Strange charts: for some reason the total power consumption is compared, without taking into account usage time and number of users. When I see this, it makes me suspicious of data manipulation.

    The third chart, “Asking ChatGPT a question” – does it mean ONE prompt?

  2. Asking a question of chatgpt.
    Is like saying loading Google.com.
    Yes by itself nearly nothing in comparison to a large video file. Now do it with scale how many 4k videos uploaded in 24 hours vs number of chatgpt calls in 24 uours .

    Time and quality matter too.

  3. You know when you see a chart which sets off that little itch in your brain that it’s hiding some bullshit? This is definitely one for me.

  4. good graph, will consult next time i have to choose between taking a transatlantic flight and asking chatgpt 50k questions
