Scientists announce a new 'organoid intelligence' field

Is it true even in that example?

251MJ is what 2000kcal diet for a month works out to. That’s also 2.5kW for 100 servers for 1000 seconds.

Is it true that a human would write a better book in a month than a well-designed algorithm?

Maybe.

What would design the algorithm?

Humans can't eat just anything though, and there's a tremendous amount of energy embodied in human food, including growing, storing, transporting and cookihg it.

And is also true for computers in different ways. Human food comes included in the natural Environment, electricity requires some degree of commercial mining.

The "well designed" plays a big role in this sentence. At some point you're just writing the book with a different "pen".

If you want to go with imaginary algorithms that don’t exist yet (or possibly ever) sure such an imaginary computer or system could do it more efficiently.
