The ladder in humans is even longer and wider than that, it's roughly: evolutionary pretraining of a complex molecular robot -> generational knowledge transfer

The ladder in humans is even longer and wider than that, it's roughly: evolutionary pretraining of a complex molecular robot -> generational knowledge transfer and compression by the "parallelized agentic swarm" aka society -> individual lifetime learning due to neuroplasticity -> immediate attention (extremely narrow and volatile). Note how the individual is just one half of it.
