AIs use a lot of resources? Naah!
In order to create cosmetics, soaps, shampoos, etc. It was required test chemicals on animals. Tons of animals have suffered in the past due those experiments but their sacrifice has allowed multiple companies know the exact recipes to create those products to stop those testings.
With technology happens something similar.
First computers were very huge and it was necessary such huge dimentions in order to allow humanity have computers of the size of a hand (cellphones).
Do you really think with AIs will not happen the same?
There will always be people trying to reduce the required resources, space, elements, etc. To create and make work AIs, and this news I am sharing is a proof of that and also a sign that probably will be possible have robots with artificial consciousness.
(Did you know that some scientists were able to "read" the brain of a fly, code that brain in to a computer and create an artificial fly in a "game" which moved and acted like a real life fly without teaching that software how to move and act? I asume that by copying the brain of animals, including humans, an AI can act, learn and behave like a certain animal. Using neurons in a way like the ones detailed in the news I have shared could maybe allow AIs and robots be like us and spending extremely low levels of resources and energy).
