And hundreds of thousands of years of evolution pre-training the base model that their experience was layered on top of.
Exactly, people don't seem to understand that our intelligence/problem solving ability is based on two major factors.
Our evolutionary lineage, pattern recognition and instinct, etc.
Our nurtured upbringing which creates the "training data" we need to accomplish specific tasks. Even if that upbringing isn't holistic it would still require a significant amount of training to do anything programming-wise that the "three minutes and a coffee" side of the panel is completely ignoring.
Without these a human is useless, we have training data as well, it's just organic and learned over a lifetime in addition to the billions of years of life evolving on this planet.
