I was basing my number on Wolfram's work here: https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2023/02/what-is-chatgpt-...

"In human brains there are about 100 billion neurons (nerve cells), each capable of producing an electrical pulse up to perhaps a thousand times a second."

So maybe that's wrong. Thanks for the links. Even so if we look out 10, 100, 200 years from now, that level of complexity will be greatly surpassed by AI.

Indeed, the computing power of cells is nothing to blink at.

It is astonishing that we can mimic human reasoning so well with these LLMs, but the essence of cognition seems to still be missing.

I agree with your belief that human processing will be surpassed in the future. We do live in some exciting times :)
