The missing piece may be a different mode of transport like trains. Humans adapted from creatures that lived in trees over millions of years, a computer has nothing on that evolutionary process of the bad tree jumper getting eaten or breaking a leg and dying.

Spend a few million years programming a computer to swing through trees and they'll probably get something that can drive a car.

We have close to that much in training data in the form of cars driven by humans.

What we lack is (still) the fundamental algorithms to learn from video. Tokenization like LLMs or diffusion are starting to fall short of this goal.
