it's one year of use which is defined in the link as 100 interactions per day.
so asking chat GPT a simple question uses 0.2Wh of energy.
and asking chat GPT 365250 simple questions burns the energy of a 25 minute hot shower.

I seriously doubt this though. Running a local model thats way weaker than any chatgpt models makes my PC turn into a jet engine for 5 minutes straight
sure. but how much water could your PC bring to shower temperatures? heating water is very energy intensive.
Idk but now I'm curious, gonna go run the bath, I'll let you know!
lol
