Who created ours?

And if it's god (which god?), who created theirs?

We are talking about engineering things.

If you want to implement it directly, good;

if you want to implement what will spawn it, good;

if you want to implement an "[evolutionary] genetic algorithm" as said spawner - so that the population of the entities in need to find solutions in the solution space will progressively develop a model of said world and a logic that works in it -, good.

If you built a mannequin and wanted to call it a woman... Bad.

Do genetic algorithms create human intelligence directly, or do they create the capacity for a human brain to develop it?

I genuinely don't know if anyone knows the answer to that.

But I do know the perceptron is a toy model of an organic neuron, and that deep learning is a toy model of larger structures such as a cortical column.

And I do know some AI (not sure about GPT in particular) are trained via genetic algorithms.

You appear to be awfully confident we haven't implemented intelligence, even by the standard stated in your reply.
