Now imagine how limited computers are with their ability to count to only 1.

Most computers can count to 2^32-1, and many can count even higher! They can also string words together grammatically, which means they are one step away from an artificial general superintelligence explosion.

But when non-human animals use AAC systems, or vocalise words directly, to express wants or needs, they aren't really talking, because they don't use tree-like grammars.

What? Even really simple MCUs can output more symbols than 0 and 1 and of course they can count higher.
