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

The underlying calculations apparently depend on the following CSV: https://github.com/mlco2/codecarbon/blob/master/codecarbon/d...
Two problems I see here
1. They are using AWS, which is not in the data set
2. The data set seems questionable to me. The GCP Iowa data center has some of the best renewable usage, are they using the data center total (a larger data center with more renewable can still have more total emmissions vs only 8% of the compute I use should be included in the calculation. Either way, the underlying data for the calculation is out of date

I built a tool for benchmarking CO2 emissions for Go programs once. It was done as a joke for a meetup once, but is now more relevant than ever.
