McCoy emphasizes that what was once considered science fiction—the recreation of neural networks akin to the human brain—is now an undeniable reality. She traces the journey from the 1940s, when early computer scientists drew neural nets on napkins, to today's million-dollar chipsets powering AI breakthroughs such as OpenAI's models breaking surpassing AGI benchmarks. These advancements signal a new era where computers not only mimic but potentially outperform human intelligence at all levels.
