No, you misunderstand, the "systems" I am talking about are the ones built into our minds, like recognizing faces, or understanding speech. Humans can learn to speak and recognize each other automatically, but AI systems have to be built specifically to do each task.

I think that is a very generous take on what we do "automatically". After all, we have millions of years of evolution to build out all the neural circuitry that helps us speech or vision -- it's not like you can throw a soup of genes on the ground and out comes intelligence. What is machine learning doing, if not selecting, out of many possible parametrizations, the ones that are suited to understand vision or speech?
