Fortescue Infinity Train electric locomotive never needs fuel or charging

> Fortescue says the deployment of the Infinity Train concept at its mines will eliminate more than 82 million liters of diesel fuel consumption (about 21 million gallons, which ChatGPT tells me amounts to about 235,200 tons of CO₂ emissions).

Why? Why would you use ChatGPT and then reference it like this? Sure, use ChatGPT to find the formula (verify it first!) and then do the math. But just regurgitating ChatGPT in a news article? Please stop.

Also at the end they made another reference:

> You guys are smart, head down to the comments and let me know (and, while you’re there, help me check ChatGPT’s math on those carbon emissions).

It gives me a small amount of “hope“ that this is some sort of engagement hacking attempt. I guess that would be better than the alternative. But also two things can be true.
