Researchers are exploring the energy efficiency of the human brain, comparing its power consumption to that of a computer monitor. This comparison highlights a significant challenge for artificial intelligence, which currently requires vastly more energy to achieve comparable cognitive functions. The study suggests that understanding the brain's low-energy mechanisms could be key to developing more sustainable AI. AI
