Playing video games is also energy hungry. If you're an experienced developer and just use AI a bit to help with some coding tasks (rather than vibe-coding the entire day), your usage would likely use less power than playing a game on a powerful gaming PC for an hour. If you look at Neuralwatt's pricing for example, smaller models are ~100-300mWh per request on average, while larger ones (GLM, Kimi K3) are ~2-3Wh, at least on Neuralwatt's infra.
