Perhaps, but it doesn't indicate anything new or interesting about cognition or biology.
For example, Minecraft in Minecraft [0] is (while impressive) slow and inefficient too, but it doesn't tell us much about humans except that some of them are weirdly ambitious in their projects.
Human brain does a lot more at any given time than just whatever you're consciously thinking about.
