All complex systems are modular and hierarchical -- by necessity. So when two complex systems are both modular and hierarchical (say, the brain and a neural network), that doesn't mean they're similar to each other. It just means they're both complex systems.

In order to fully realize the potential of AI, we have to mitigate its risks.
