As opposed to the environmental impact of running any other software on your computer?

    Well if simply making an image takes more energy than running my fridge for a week then it’s not worth it. Why are you being so obtuse about this?

    According to a quick internet search, an average fridge takes 1-2kWh per day, so that's at least 7kWh per week.

    Making an image takes ~20 seconds. My computer, for example, has a 700W PSU, so it can't draw more power than that. That's at most 0.004kWh.

    Well if 0.004kWh takes more energy than 7kWh then it’s not worth it.

    Seems like your statement is going to the else branch.

    What part of image gen models run on your computer and use about the same amount of power as playing a game are you still struggling with here? Why are you being so obtuse about this?

    Did you generate this yourself? What program do you use? Did you make this FOR yourself? Because you posted it for others to look at. I’m not the only one who doesn’t like looking at it.

    To answer your question; it’s your problem I don’t like looking at it. Fuck your dumbass AI.

    If it were my choice I’d make all you turn off your computers for a day no matter how much energy it took. Lol. You get a daily limit. Maybe then you’d have to go outside or practice making art that isn’t horrendous AI imitation of real humans real art.
