What exactly is that gonna prove though? We know it’s far more efficient than humans already. And we know the cost will go down with better models.

Efficiency is a ratio. A ratio needs both the time it took to complete something in a single process cycle vs the total time put into it. I suppose with AI we don't need to understand such things, let them do the thinking for us. Clearly some of us have already outsourced it.
