do they assume we can't do math?
1 tsp of water is about 5g.
15 queries use about 5g of water.
3k queries use 1kg of water
3m queries use 1 ton of water
ChatGPT claims it processes over a billion queries every day. That's over 300 tons of water a day.
THAT SEEMS LIKE A LOT.
And I think we can safely say that's an absolute lower bound, with reality likely way higher.
