If it's so smart already, why hasn't it replaced the most basic functionality in human society yet? Like, can a GPT4 drive a car because most people can drive a car.

The "basic functionality" may just be more complicated than intelligence. Intelligence and language are relatively new capabilities built on top of older, better honed ones, so it shouldn't necessarily come at a surprise that computers get smart before they can properly deal with the physical world.

Because we haven't hooked it up to visual input yet?

GPT4 is multimodal and supports visual input.

I meant the >20fps of continuous motion image input that would be required to drive safely in real-time.
