Adult humans are also very much human created. That’s what the educational system is trying to do.
When you ask a child for the answer to ‘2+2’ they might tell you ‘green’. An adult is a lot more predictable because he has learned the ‘right’ answer.
Our best efforts to teach people to fit the shema sometimes fail but not always.
True, and even much wider than the educational system, but I would probably rephrase to say that this makes human intelligence predictable within narrow domains. A math class strives to make students predictable when attempting to solve math problems, a legal system hopes to make humans predictable in the domain of violent conflict resolution, a religion hopes to make humans predictable in metaphysical inquiry, etc.
But human intelligence itself is fully general (in that we defined ‘fully general’ to mean ‘like me’), so there’s not really any form of training or education that can make, or attempts to make, human intelligence predictable across all domains.
