No, and please dont spread incorrect information just because "there's a meme."
The cluster has 100,000 H100's. Each H100 takes about 700 watts. Call it 1kW per H100 for simplicity, and assume power is about $0.10/kWh (they probably built this somewhere power is cheap, so it's likely cheaper than that).
100,000kW * $0.10/kWh = $10,000/hour or $33 power cost for 12 seconds.
A possibly more interesting, and true, statistic is it costs about a quarter million dollars a day to power up this cluster.
