Its always funny to realize how "easy" beating human-intelligence is (Chess AI, Go AI, even Mathematical Proofs), but how hard beating human-simple behaviors are.

IE: Stand up on two legs, walk forward, and move these 10 objects from this bin to that bin without breaking any of those objects. Or fold these clothes (surprisingly difficult to get a robot to do that).

We can build super-advanced Chess and Go AIs that beat out the grand summation of theoretical human knowledge (with Chess theory going back hundreds of years, and Go theory going back maybe thousands!!), but we still can't move a variety of objects from one bin to another successfully and repeatably.

Another funny example: AIs (or various algorithms at least) have solved the object camera tracking problem, but still basically fail at depth perception and figuring out if something is "still" or "moving" based on sight alone.
