    If I look at the capabilities of single celled organisms, it makes me think about how smart individual neurons might be.https://twitter.com/rmartinledo/status/1256588893752823809 …

        Problem is that individual brains are made up of lots of sub-brains/parts which are often, unknowingly, working on conflicting agendas. (One part is protecting you from the risk of failure by convincing you that you can't start because it won't be perfect)

        The cells in the brain happen be all permanently locked into the same dark room where they get to collectively share the rewards that their joint activity brings to the owner of that room. They are highly incentivized to be maximally cooperative.

        Definitely smarter than transistors. Problem is, AI can produce transistors much faster (how many orders of magnitude?) than we can produce neurons and especially synapses.

        It's not so much the issues that transistors are less capable, but how many you'd need to emulate the necessary functionality, especially since each neuron is an autonomous reinforcement learning agent

        Scary to see parallels to multicellular organism behavior. Hunter/prey may be inevitable behavior/pattern, even for AI+ and other potential, advanced non-terrestrial cultures.
