I think the spirit of the NY Times article, and current trends, is _not_ to reify. Graphics processors, tensor processors, FPGAs, spiking systems, quantum annealers, etc. are by in large tackling machine learning, not engineered intelligence (class AI) or even (necessarily) supervised learning. We are _blinded_ by what we think we know.

All this argues directly against RussA's argument of reified ideas. And it relates back to the article Alfredo posted, too. Our intelligence doesn't reside in our brains and, therefore, it's reasonable to think that an artificial intelligence's intelligence will not reside in some sort of CPU.
