Its based on a rough calculation, a humans energy consumption averages to about a 126w supply, a mid range laptop uses about 150w. Admitedly a humans energy consumption is going to change a lot moment to moment but then so is the robots.

Hmm... well considering small sedentary adults need like around 1,200 to survive, then a mid range laptop seems like it would require 1,400.

Nah its based on a 2000kcal/day person, there's a still a lot of caveats sure like the person has to sleep but considering we're comparing to literally just the robots brain a human is way more efficient.
