Spiking neural networks (SNNs) are promoted as an energy-efficient substrate because sparse, event-driven activity replaces dense multiply-accumulates with cheap accumulates. We argue the energy dividend of sparsity is not a property of SNNs but of the task.
arXiv:2601. 22876v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Spiking neural networks (SNNs) promise energy-efficient inference for large language models (LLMs), yet most reported savings rely on compute-operation counts that overlook data movement.
