The brain did it so using neural networks like we have been doing is bound to get somewhere eventually, right?

Yeah but artificial neural networks are not how the brain performs computation. Brains use voltage spikes and have complex lightning quick dynamics, different kinds of cells, ion channels, neurotransmitters, etc. We don't understand the principles behind how they produce intelligence.

ANNs are tanh or ReLU neurons running on GPUs. We understand these principles pretty well compared to the brain.
