…in 5 seconds. So 8 minutes = 480 seconds = 96 kWh. My car has a 91 kWh battery, 450 km range.

What's cool is that I don't see any repeated answer. Goes to show! Personally: Andor, Acolyte, Visions.

I don't think the argument is ONLY from an environmental POV. For me the biggest argument against genAI is the impact on labor, and having no backup plan while the economic model demands people work for a living. But even so, the environmental argument can't be dismissed through "whataboutism".

Put it in your terms - based on the lowest one you mentioned, 570g natural gas estimate, a 10 eps 30 min series would produce roughly 2,000 kg CO2, about the same as a large/luxury car produces in an entire year. And that's just one guy fucking around with it for a while.

...for a 5 second video. People are gonna be making movies on this shit. 1.44 MWh for a 2 hr movie sound ok? Maybe make an animated series, 10 eps 30 min for a meager 3.5 MWh?

So doing some math... basically with an 8 minute video I could charge up my EV battery full, 450 km range 😰 for fuck's sake, what are we doing here?

Let me put an even finer point on this: Nancy Pelosi intervened in the House Oversight race to make sure a 74 year old cancer patient won over an up and coming, Latino woman—right before Musk eviscerated the government. Who do we think would’ve done a better job at providing oversight?
