I think the Lego example says more about the human brain’s limited working memory to keep track of the current state without errors. It seems like it would be easier to write a computer program to do the first task than the second, and I think the first program would execute faster as well.
I’m not familiar enough with neural nets to have reliable intuitions about them. I was thinking in terms of more traditional computer programs. I wouldn’t be surprised if a neural net behaved more like a human brain in this regard.

Yeah, maybe. Or maybe not. Do you have arguments that artificial neural nets are more like computer programs in this regard than like human brains?

OK, thanks. Well, we’ll find out in a few years!
