    Distill intelligence - what is it, really? Predicting what comes next based on… patterns. Patterns you learn in life, from experience, from books, from genetic memories, but that’s all your intelligence is too: pattern recognition / prediction.

    As massive as current AI systems are, consider that you have ~86 Billion neurons in your head, devices that evolved over the span of billions of years ultimately enabling you to survive in a competitive world with trillions of other living creatures, eating without being eaten at least long enough to reproduce, back and back and back for millions of generations.

    Current AI is a bunch of highly simplified computers with up to hundreds of thousands of cores. Like planes fly faster than birds, AI can do some tricks better than human brains, but mostly: not.
