Estimate the emissions of third-party AI API calls from model and request characteristics when the hardware is not accessible
#00166
When a generative model is called through a provider's API, hardware cannot be metered. Estimate per-request energy and CO2 from model size, token counts, and data-centre assumptions using a life-cycle method, giving API consumers an impact figure they otherwise cannot obtain.
