In my uninformed opinion, ML is more akin to the subconscious parts of our brain, like our ability to recognize peoples faces. We don't learn how to do this, it's there when we are born. It is a hardwired part of our brain that was formed through evolution instead of learning and does not involve higher order thinking. It's obviously useful, and could/would form part of a AGI system but unlikely to be enough.
