Stable Diffusion, a generative AI model trained on millions of images, contains the entire visual universe—all celebrities, dinosaurs, spaceships, and artistic styles—at higher fidelity and variety than a human brain in just 2 gigabytes, suggesting that 80% of human visual knowledge is compressible into this small size and therefore humans are fundamentally more efficient than raw computational complexity.
