The differences between a human brain and any kind of model we can currently train are too great to be listed. They are incomparable. It turns out that no matter how many perceptrons you put together, you don't get a brain.

Heck, we don't even know how brains work, and you got people talking about how they're making AI clones of themselves with LLMs lol.
