Energy & Water 

• The biggest cons with these new pieces of tech is the amount of water and electricity it requires to cooldown and power the servers. 

• ​The current average energy consumption is approx. .34Wh per answer (GPT-4o). 

• The current average water consumption is approx. .32mL per answer (GPT-4o). 1,000 Answers would be approx. 320mL, which is about the size of a small water bottle.
