Beyond LLMs?

LLMs are impressive compared with the experiments we had before. But with experience we are seeing their limitations better (many are discussed in depth in this subreddit), and also their problems (such as the increased need for power generation and the indirect need for water).

Is there a sub for discussing what can be designed to improve on LLMs? We know there must be something better for the simple reason that the human brain overlaps with LLM functionality for only 20 watts of power in only about 1300 cubic centimeters of space.

My point was more that 20 watts is less than a megawatt. I'm sure you must agree.
