On the other hand, a single cell much simpler than a neuron (any bacteria) is able to perform significantly more complex calculations than any ANN we've tried so far (successfully interacting with an environment to move and find food).
Comparing these kinds of disparate tasks for "computational power levels" between vastly different architectures one of which we're not even close to understanding is generally pretty futile.
