“There’s no way to get there without a breakthrough,” OpenAI CEO Sam Altman said, arguing that AI will soon need even more energy.

    I heard that the human body can produce more bioelectricity than a battery

      Which is bullshit for obvious reasons. Humans are no eels.

        In fact, the original script of The Matrix had the machines harvest humans to be used as ultra efficient compute nodes. Executive meddling led to the dumb battery idea .

          I love their original idea. Having your brainpower sapped and also being part of a collective dream that creates the world around you is such a cooler and more philosophical idea.

          This was a far smarter premise. I wonder if it would have been as popular had they kept it.

        not really. It’s just different energy. Calories can be converted to a unit of heat, a unit of heat is directly analogous to a unit of energy. Electricity is a unit of energy as well. Thus you can compare them. It’s how you compare things like electrical production efficiency of a thermal cycle generation process.
