I think Moravec’s paradox is more than a selection effect. Face recognition requires more computing power than multiplying two 32-bit numbers, and it’s not just because we’ve learned to formalize one but not the other. We will never get so good at programming computers that our face-recognition programs get faster than our number-multiplication programs.
