It’s still crazy to think about how much more efficient computational power is nowadays compared to even five years ago. I remembered I changed my power supply in anticipation for Nvidias then newest GTX series. But only to learn that a 1050Ti only had a 75W max draw so the new fancy 1kW PSU was completely unnecessary. Also to put into perspective, my Mac mini has a 30W max draw. 30W!!! It’s ridiculous how little energy it draws.
- trthomps 6y agoYou want your mind to really be blown, your brain manages to do everything it does on around 20W, even less than that mac mini.
- visarga 6y agoThe brain is not just more efficient, it also builds itself. The hardware necessary to run a neural net is given. Maybe the rigors of self replication are what's missing from AI.
