The current OpenCyc KB is ~200 Mbs (correct me if I'm wrong).

The RAM size of current high-end PCs is ~10 Gbs.

My intuition estimates that the current OpenCyc is only about 10%-40%
of a 5 year-old human intelligence.

Plus, learning requires that we store a lot of hypotheses.  Let's say
1000-10000 times the real KB.

That comes to 500Gb - 20Tb.

It seems that if we allow several years for RAM size to double a few
times, RAM may have a chance to catch up to the low end.  Obviously
not now.
