Just for some more perspective, a 747 outputs 12,500 tons of CO2 per year. So training GPT4 is basically of no major CO2 concern, especially when you consider how much CO2 it saves.
Saves in the sense that humans no longer have to do the work, GPT-4 can just spit it out in seconds so no need for lights, computers to run, food to be produced for the human to eat, etc.
