> A single almond requires an average of 12 liters (3.2 gallons) of water to grow.<p>> Almond milk: It takes about 1,600 gallons of water to produce one liter of almond milk. The ratio of almonds to water in almond milk is usually 1:3 or 1:4.<p>> According to a report, Chat GPT consumes approximately 500 ml of fresh, clean water every twenty to fifty questions. Although it may not appear to be a large volume of water each time, the fact that Chat GPT has over 100 million users monthly and is consistently responding to queries and producing answers accumulates quickly. It is estimated that during its training, Chat GPT consumed about 700,000 liters of water, which is equivalent to the amount of water used by an average American household in about 20 years.<p>The blog post compares fresh water usage of Chat GPT to almond milk production (know to be wasteful of water) and Chat GPT comes off far worse.<p>This is followed by a quote from <i>Apocalypse Never</i> arguing for nuclear power.
