imagine how much energy goes into generating each chatgpt response, or each 30-60 second AI video

Improvements to energy consumption are being implemented each generation. Online image generation is estimated at 2.9Wh per instance.

However, for example, Stable Diffusion XL Turbo is closer to 0.1Wh per instance. The push to market always beats the push for optimization.
