For a functionalist, this and every other "more general AI might need X also" is expected. Like, humans need sleep, pain, anxiety, social mediation, etc to achieve our high level of generality. IMO, our base case should be that a sufficiently general AI will need them as well.
I'm very excited by the budding neuromorphic phase of generality research for these kinds of discoveries

That retrained model is then shared across the system. So I’d argue that ML systems already “sleep”, it just looks more like dolphin sleep due to their similar need for continuous operation.
