Even if it was a 1 to 1 replacement of human energy to AI energy expenditure, people don't eat electricity. We, in fact, have two entirely different sets of infrastructure for food vs electricity. If you just dump a bunch of extra load into one of the systems randomly, it's going to cause issues.
Fuck Altman and this shitty attempt at covering for his bad product.
