Perhaps a computer could but I'm only human and I don't understand the
question.

humans are figuring out how intelligence works but how fast machines are
becoming intelligent. I think it very unlikely, probably impossible, that
any human being, or even any group of people, will ever have a deep
understanding of how the first human level AI works; but that doesn't mean
such machines won't get built, and in less than 50 years, possibly much
less.
