Nope. The human neural network runs on about 20 watts of power. The LLM is vastly less efficient than the human version. And that's just the inference -- if you consider training it's much worse.
Sure the brain runs on low power but it requires an entire body of support systems, extensive daily downtime maintenance, about twenty five years of training, and finally requires energy input in an incredibly inefficient format.
To be fair, the AI probably hallucinates more efficiently than the human.

Humans are more than just brains. The average American human costs about $50,000/year to run.
