This light touching on the topic doesn't really do it justice. The more you think about sleep the more important it becomes depending on what goes under the umbrella term "sleep". Sleep is a form of dormancy and in nature and there are many dormancies and variants all with various reasons for being and importances. Nature's dormancies analogue for AGI would cover many things depending on the structure and type of AGI, as well the analogue for a society of AGIs compared to a society of animals in nature. There is a lot to "sleep" besides the cognitive and informational processing functions it seems.
