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.
