that graph showing zero growth without "tech spending" seems to indicate that.

What puzzles me is that human brains require only about 20 watts of power, plus food, shelter, relationships, medical care, and 20 years of experiential and educational training effort, so why do LLMs need so much more power, if they are piggybacking on digital human training data?

is your comment supposed to be pessimistic or optimistic? my interpretation of your post is that we should be investing more into AI because eventually we will achieve human-like AI running on 20 watts of power. we know it's possible because as you said, our brains are doing it.

neither p nor n. Just a question
