How does a query to GPT-4 compare to driving a car?

A single query to GPT-4 with a 10,000-word answer size produces 450 gCO2e (*). An average UK car produces 132 gCO2e/km. So this query is equivalent to driving a car 3.4 km.

First Human Death from #H5N1 #BirdFlu Reported in Louisiana

Yes, they're quick to comfort you with the fact that the deceased was old & sick... Oh sorry, "over 65 & had underlying medical issues"

*FLASHBACK*

Remember when they emphasized that about #Covid so they sent kids back to school & that continues to keep Covid going strong & how *surprise* a lot of college kids now have #LongCovid? Yeah? Ok good. Keep remembering as this potentially becomes a pandemic.
