If a LLM hallucinates, we shrug. If a self-driving car hallucinates, it might run a red light and kill a person. These different error tolerances might explain why progres on AI agents has been slower than expected.

At 20W, the human brain consumes approximately 3,000 kWh by the age of 18, or $300 at 10c/kWh. Long way to go for present-day AI. But I believe we can make this happen.
