We’re having our particular technological revolutions as well. In little more than a century we’ve managed to construct computing devices with capabilities that may have taken thousands of years to be achieved but nature.
What I find fascinating is the efficiency of the brain.
With a supercomputer and the energy of a nuclear station to run it we are able to simulate a handful of neurons interacting with each other.
On the other hand the brain with billions of neurons only requires the energy of one or two potato to run.

To be fair, nature had millions od years to optimize the power consumption and we only observe the successful results since the failures didn’t survive.
