The reason: the human brain is an ultra-efficient, self learning system with 86 billion neurons, refined by evolution.

AI, meanwhile, relies on energy-hungry data centers, GPUs, and cooling systems.

Despite AI’s progress, nature still outperforms technology in efficiency.

The next frontier? Neuromorphic computing, designing AI that mimics the brain’s power-efficient architecture.
