But when it comes to deep creative thinking, inferring new knowledge and very long chains of logical reasoning
I haven't found humans to be all that good at it, either. We do it sometimes, under limited circumstances. A few people are creative geniuses.
But most people just don't. An average chain of logical reasoning is perhaps two steps deep. Mozart is Mozart and Taylor Swift is Taylor Swift but I can't reliably play a scale on a guitar, and most people can't either.
Humans are still a lot better at doing ordinary human things: walking, figuring out how to do things by watching, guessing what's on your mind by looking. But the really "deep" stuff is actually kinda rare. Maybe we're still better at it, but I'm not sure we're all that good.
