Brains don't do FLOPS. It is a completely different type of "calculation". Computational benchmarks are only directly comparable when the representations of input and output are the same.
That's very true, but in some ways it's even more remarkable: there exists an alternative form of calculation/computation that is "magical" in certain domains when compared to all the standard CS we know, and we don't have a clue what it is.
It's not an apple/apple comparison. It's an apple/unicorn comparison.
I don't know, if counted every modulation in every wire in a computer (CPU, RAM, cache activations, etc), you might get a signifant multiple of its FLOPS count, right?
