supremely fun article & utter bullshit. part of the optimization constraints for biological brains is to keep behavior flexible across generations. Also, DNA >> cells >> brain structures can't be the most efficient way to encode behavior. (my proof: it absolutely can't, that would be insane). The article is saying it would take the max output of the 3 gorges dam in china to simulate a single human brain on a computer, but that the brain itself runs on 20 watts. Instead of simulating, transpile.
