Comment on Making an image with generative AI uses as much energy as charging your phone

This is outdated in a big way with stable diffusion turbo and the recent LCM models that can render images at 30fps on a 3090.

360w * 1s /60 seconds a minute / 60 minutes an hour = .1 wh/image

Or 100 mwh

30 images a second? 3.3 mwh

A phone battery is 3000 mah * 3.5volts 10,500 mwh

3,181 images per phone charge.

My math is probably off, but you get the idea.
