We have natural intelligence made of meat, processing by ion currents in liquid. Ion currents in liquid have an extremely short decoherence time, way too short to compute with.
Are you arguing with students of Deepak Chopra?
While I doubt AI needs QC, I don't think this argument works. Your same argument seems to rule out birds exploiting quantum phenomena to navigate, yet they are thought to do so.
There's a difference between exploiting quantum phenomena and using entanglement. There's a large set of quantum mechanical behavior which doesn't really add much computationally. (To some extent this is part of why we don't call our normal laptops quantum computers even though transistors and hard drives use quantum mechanics to work.)
Precisely. That's why we shouldn't be calling our brains 'quantum' either...
Or if we do, then that is in no way an argument against our using our current off-the-shelf 'quantum' computers!
Entanglement is what QM does that classical can't do directly (can in sim, of course). Everything else is just funny force laws.
No, it doesn't. I addressed the ion current nature of nerve action potentials.
Birds' directional sensing couples to such a system but is not made of it.
