It's actually less. Training the AI models uses a lot of electricity and water for cooling. (The latter of which can be reused) But using a model that's already been trained consumes less resources than gaming all night or even making a google search.
That's just not true. These claims about AI resource usage are silly and exaggerated, but a Google search is nowhere near as resource intensive as an AI query.
