Unfortunately, another part of the body needs attention. In a new book called Work Meets Life, one of its co-authors, the Cambridge neurobiologist Professor Simon Laughlin, suggests that, in evolutionary terms, the human brain may now have reached its capacity. Accounting for 2 per cent of a body's weight, it expends 20 per cent of its energy.
The cranial crisis, it turns out, is not unlike the global one. The 21st-century brain has used up the space available to it and has a growing energy problem. Humans may, in fact, need to get slightly stupider in order to survive. In the words of another expert in the field, "it is clear that there are tight constraints on intelligence".

(AGI) London - The human brain will not be able to make further progress because it has reached the physical limits of intelligence. The laws of physics keep the human race from making further progress along this road.

Has our brain reached full capacity?

Всё действительно так.
