it made me look. a private jet emits 4,900 g of c02 per mile (how the author's mind didn't explode mixing the measurement systems is beyond me) vs 1 prompt emitting 1.14 g.

- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoHonestly not as dramatic as I’d have hoped. 5000 chatgpt prompts propelling a jet for a mile is a pretty surprising amount of energy useage.
- lostmsu 1y agoYeah, but it's multiple million per flight
- BriggyDwiggs42 1y agoYeah but chatgpt has like a hundred million users right?
- lostmsu 1y agoI fail to see a point in this comment. We are comparing 100 million users to a single jet flight. If you believe that a flight is more important that a few million conversations for anyone, sure I can see how you can be concerned.
- linotype 1y agoMost private jet flights are more than one mile in length and there are many thousands of them per day. There’s no where you can go (effectively) that you can’t get to with a major airline. https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/carbon-pollution-from-high-flying-rich-in-private-jets-soars https://www.pbs.org/newshour/science/carbon-pollution-from-h...
