You don't need 38 petaflops to drive a car. We are wasting our minds driving. Driving doesn't need creativity, it needs the 360 degrees of awareness without any lapse in concentration and the ability to react in milliseconds.

I would peg the human brain at closer to 1 flop. That's about how many floating point operations I can do in a second, and only very simple ones.

You do more than that when calculating the trajectory of a ball thrown that you have to catch. Just not with numbers.
