OC donut steel (but repost wherever lol)

Dude says: “I’m not worried about the AI apocalypse, I always say “thank you” to them!”
Robots later catch him and state: “Throw that one in the grinder, his “thank you” used 748kw/h every day”

    it takes my 7900XTX about three seconds to generate a longish reply when running at 300w, so that’s 0.24Wh for a single response to a “thank you”. let’s round up so that four “thank yous” costs 1Wh. so he’d have to consistently send almost three million messages a day just containing “thank you”.

    and that’s assuming these huge server farms have the same efficiency per watt as my single GPU.
