Their point was the insane efficiency, not the low consumption. Modern LLMs are many orders of magnitude less energy efficient; despite all our progress computational biology makes our silicon looks primitive in some metrics.
At the end of the day this is mostly meaningless.
Biological creatures have to be efficient because they need to harvest energy from the environment around them. But to limit machines to that would be like saying we have to feed biomass to airplanes.
