That's not an argument. Nature never worked out going into space, yet we solved it in a few decades.

- SoftTalker 1y agoIt worked out flying though, millions of years before we did and we still don't do it as well. We can't even do walking as well as nature did.
- baq 1y agoWalking is easy compared to elbows, fingers and thumbs. It’s just falling over in a controlled fashion. I hear at least one company in Boston figured it out. Anyway, humanoid robots should be big in the next 10-20 years. The compute, the batteries, the algorithms are all coming together.
- derektank 1y agoWe do flying better. If you adjust for our body weight, a modern airliner uses less energy per traveller mile than your average migratory bird. And the airliner goes much faster.
- jll29 1y agoYes but that's "in a few decades" ON TOP of millions of years. If I had to give an estimate, I would consider less the time taken to date, but the current state of our knowledge of how the brain works, and how it has grown in the last decades. There is almost nothing that we know so little about as the human brain, how thoughts are represented, modern imaging techniques notwithstanding.
- exe34 1y ago> Yes but that's "in a few decades" ON TOP of millions of years. If that's the bar, then anything else can fit in "a few decades", since that also rests "ON TOP of millions of years".
