Your neurons fire at 100Hz, send signals at 100 m/s along myelinated fibers, dissipate 20W, and can't multiply 6-digit numbers unaided.
The ultimate thinking artifact permitted by the laws of physics is apparently FIVE TIMES more optimal than that, but has only 25% more benefit.

Our meat computers are feeble (sigh).
We did get manage to get a few monkeys to the moon using rockets designed with slide rules, which is pretty impressive.
