Humans don't require immense amounts of energy to function. The reasons why LLMs do is because we are essentially using brute force as the methodology for making them smarter for the lack of better understanding of how this works. But this then gives us a lot of material to study to figure that part out for future iterations of the concept.

Are you so sure about that? How much energy went into training the self-assembling chemical model that is the human brain? I would venture to say literally astronomical amounts.

You have to compare apples to apples. It took literally the sum total of billions of years of sunlight energy to create humans.

Exploring solution spaces to find intelligence is expensive, no matter how you do it.

Humans normally need about 30 years of training before they’re competent.
