Does it have to be inside a skull interfaced with skin, eyes, nose, ears and mouth to function?

Very true. People asking for explainability from DNN is a transitory problem.

There should be better Neurallink to crack it.

The black box that demands that other black boxes be explainable. And also ethical and what not.

How many species out there (in the universe) possess more advanced (and complex) brains than ours? Probably quite a few. How sophisticated might be the AI they have created?

And the proof of your statement is the astounding number of convoluted replies human brains generate in response. They're all over the map.

The human brain has passed the test of time, with over 1000s of years of reliable use. Deep neural networks aren't even 10 years old. Would you let your 10 year old drive your car?
