You know what else barely learns anything given the amount of computation that goes into it? A kid.

With 100 billion neurons -- so on the order of a hundred gigabytes of RAM -- after 72 months of closely supervised learning they're still far from being able to do many rudimentary tasks. It takes over 10 years of training to do that.

Something tells me most ML researchers wouldn't be too unhappy with such an awful performance.
