According to Hoyle ;-) Claude Balls still goes low on teaching. The #1 AI can't teach basic stuff like reading

So I agree with your point we have the computation necessary, On average a neuron in the brain fires closer to once a second than 1000 times a second. And I actually think Kurzweil's estimate is conservative because he did not take into consideration the fact that neurons are far less reliable than transistors, if just one neuron misfire could destroy an entire train of thought then intelligent action would be impossible, so the brain runs many identical calculations in order to drown out the noise caused by the misfire. An electronic brain would not need to do that, or at least not need to do it as much. Ralph Merkel has a design for a purely mechanical nanocomputer such that you could fit 8*10^19 logic gates into the same volume as the human brain, each one flipping about a billion times a second. Something like that could easily emulate every human being on the planet.

I think computers have been able to pass the Turing Test for about the last 18 months, but Ray Kurzweil says that won't happen until 2029, although he wouldn't be very surprised if it happened a year or two earlier. When I look into the details of what he means by "passing the Turing Test" it's that by 2029 a computer will be much better than even the best human being at EVERYTHING. To Kurzweil, AI and even Artificial General Intelligence is old hat, he's talking about Artificial Superintelligence.
