That’d need watt hours though. Meme is only showing the instantaneous power required to conjure the image for an infinitesimal amount of time - you cant do any useful ‘work’ with it unless the time is accounted for.
Watt seconds maybe.
What makes me skeptikal of this data though is that the correct sciencing term for a billion watts is the well established ‘jiggawatt’. In this context I’d have also accepted the Canadian spelling ‘jigglewatt’.
not “infinitesimal time.” continuously. think of it like this: to continuously think up perky tits, it takes a human mind 12 watts- brain is a 12 watt computer. time interval is proportional to the number of titty images/length of titty video. and im psure an individual instance of titty ai doesn’t come out to 2.7 jigglewatts- im like 80% sure i can get a (small) titty generator to run on my lil 50 watt phone. not testing that assumption today tho.
Yeah no. Imagine it like a computer and screen. To render an image it will momentarily consume a bit more power, but as soon as it has been rendered it will still continuosily consume a stable amount of x Watt to keep running and displaying the picture. For continuous stable operation of something with no specified time, Watt is the correct unit.
Also, it literally is an energy unit used in measurements. It’s meant as a continious power. Ie. Your active imagination consumes around 12 watts of power, not “rendering one image”
Watt isn not an energy unit.
People say this, but almost every time the time interval is left off it’s hours.
Either way, the numbers in this meme are clearly made up. Most image generation uses fewer than 10 watt hours.
Can confirm. Image generation with SDXL Turbo uses approx. 0.4 wH.
This is new for me. Must be some engineering thing. I’m a physicist and and I feel guilty if I leave out some units just because, lol.
Its continuous to keep the image active in your mind :)

Are watt seconds not joules
yes, which is what you’d measure to compare the energy efficiency of completing a job.
it’s about energy transfer though. transfer of titty whats to watts to my mind.
That’s just science
And the text dosnt specify a time interval, whats your point?
That watts by themselves mean nothing with regard to energy consumption.
Also, it literally is an energy unit used in measurements. It’s meant as a continious power. Ie. Your active imagination consumes around 12 watts of power, not “rendering one image”
That’s power, not energy.
Watt would you suggest?
