The human brain's processing power is estimated to be 1 exaflop, or 10¹⁸ floating-point operations per second, while consuming only 20 watts of power:
Power efficiency
The brain is extremely power efficient, using renewable solar energy stored in food. In comparison, the world's most powerful supercomputer, the Oak Ridge Frontier, requires 20 megawatts of power to perform exaflop computing.
Computational efficiency
The brain's computational efficiency is orders of magnitude higher than electronic computers.
Brain structure
The brain is made up of interconnected nerve cells, called neurons, that communicate with each other through electrical and chemical interactions. The brain distributes its computing power to billions of neurons, which interact through trillions of connections (synapses).
Processing capacity
The brain's processing capacity is estimated to be 120 bits per second. This is enough to understand one person speaking, but at least 120 bps is needed to understand two people
Mars Perseverance Sol 1314: Left Navigation Camera (Navcam) gif
NASA's Mars Perseverance rover acquired these images using its onboard Left Navigation Camera (Navcam). The camera is located high on the rover's mast and aids in driving.
Images acquired on Oct. 30, 2024 (Sol 1314) at the local mean solar time of 14:52:39 to 14:54:26.
