Which, per the EPA [0], is roughly the tailpipe CO2 you’d emit by burning a little under 3 gallons of gas in your car, right? Which is to say, driving 65ish miles in the US [1]?
It amazes me that computational feats of this magnitude can be so energy efficient in the scheme of things.
It’s not that surprising actually, computation moves nothing and all energy has to turn into heat. If computation would use as much energy as moving physical objects, the heat would burn everything down
