Moravec's paradox

Moravec's Paradox is a concept in robotics and artificial intelligence that highlights the disparity between human cognitive capabilities and the abilities of machines. Named after roboticist Hans Moravec, the paradox states that high-level reasoning tasks that require abstract thinking, such as playing chess or solving complex mathematical problems, are often easier for computers to perform than low-level sensorimotor skills that humans execute effortlessly, like recognizing faces, walking, or understanding natural language.
