People can quickly switch attention easily. They do not multitask well.
It amazes me people still confuse the two. But you're a special

actually, a cpu doesn't multitask at all. the operating system switches
tasks really fast which gives the illusion of everything running at the
same time.

only if there are multiple cores can two threads run at the same time.


All CPUS have multiple cores nowadays.

And humans multitask very well. Try walking and talking at the same time.
Your brain has different areas dedicated to different types of task.
