For me, where electricity is $0.45/kWh, assuming 1kW consumption, it would be around $80 USD/million!

I think you might have to show your math on that one.

They said 1.5 tokens/second. 1 mil tokens is 667k seconds is 185 hours per million tokens. 1kW * 185hr * $0.45/kWh = $80 per million tokens. Again, assuming 1kW, which may be high (or low). The cost of the physical computation is electricity cost.

They said it has a crappy GPU, the whole computer probably only uses 200 - 250 watts.
