Brains are more efficient (for certain things) today, but there is no reason to believe they are somehow optimal.https://twitter.com/michelteivel/status/667166390047129600 …

@fchollet To me, energy is one of the areas where computational universality might be disadvantaged, but got nothing formal to back this up.
@michelteivel Let's wait for photonics and quantum computers. Tech will eventually end up only consuming the minimum possible energy per bit

@fchollet What is the theoretical minimum? -
@michelteivel one photon emission / absorption per bit switch? I don't actually know. - Show replies

@fchollet Interesting angle to computationality is storage: big RAM v. bit data. Many issues can be solved merely by hardware (obvious.)Thanks. Twitter will use this to make your timeline better. UndoUndo
