By phrasing it as a ChatGPT-vs-human comparison he is aiming to distract us from the only real issue: the additional emissions caused by the "AI" hype he is so desperate to keep alive.
And of course it also suggests we could offset the energy use of his precious "AI" by having fewer humans. Altman is easily one of the most loathsome people on the planet.

@wim_v12e Funny how when they want to downplay environmental impact they measure water/energy use against a query/less than a token of use, but when they are hyping the tech they talk about using up millions of tokens at once

@wim_v12e And it completely eliminates the cost of training from the discussion, even though there is no indication that they or their successors will stop *training new models* no matter how good the existing models are. Until they provide a metric for "this is when we will stop training new models" I don't think "excluding the cost of training" is a viable basis.
