alt Hacker NewsIt’s a weird product of this hype cycle that inevitably involves denying the crazy power of the human brain - every second you are awake or asleep the brain is processing enormous amounts of information available to it without you even realizing it, and even when you abuse the crap out of the brain, or damage it, it still will adapt and keep working as long as it has energy.
No current ai technology could come close to what even the dumbest human brain does already.
A lot of that behind-the-scenes processing is keeping our meatbags alive, though, and is shared with a lot of other animals. Language and higher-order reasoning (that AI seems better and better at) has only evolved quite recently.
