Imagine building a skyscraper.
Evolution built the #brain by starting with a strong foundation (#moving), then adding the ground floor (#learning), then the second floor (#imagining), and finally the penthouse (#language).

#MaxBennett argues that modern AI builders tried to build the penthouse floating in the sky without building the foundation first.

That is why AI is so impressive (it writes poetry!) but also so fragile (it can't distinguish between a fact and a lie). To fix this, we need to go back and look at the blueprints our own brains.
