But the hard things are things a child can do.

The things like proving complicated theorems are things that are acquired by education within a lifetime, and that's why they're easy for AI.

The things a child can do are acquired through millions of years of evolution. While they don't require much explicit education, that doesn't mean they're easier.

Fair enough but even thing acquired within a lifetime have a hierarchy. Many societies, for example, assume that the kids who are good in Math are smart but the ones who write well or are exemplary in "co-curricular" subjects simply aren't that bright.

As an example, the kid who can solve Math problems has less of an edge over AI than the kid who automatically becomes the captain of the neighbourhood football team but older human beings often assume that the former is smarter.
