If you're multiplying watts with hours, your end unit is Megawatt hours (MWh) rather than just Megawatts, and that makes much more sense to me.
leppasjari.bsky.social (@leppasjari.bsky.social) reply parent
What's your reasoning between sextillion FLOPS and 3 megawatts of power? To me, it feels like the wrong unit to be using here, since it describes an constant output rather than some discrete amount of energy needed to compute the model.
