In thinking about this perennial problem it's worth bearing in mind that human beings pick up and process an immense amount of data on a continuous basis, that is currently unavailable to any LLM.

20 for the brain, 60-125 for the whole body depending on if you mean "normally" or "metabolic minimum".

The "metabolic maximum" is around 1250, though. And a mediocre lifting or running momentarily increases it from 125 to 700.
