It is always refreshing to read the thoughts of someone knowledgeable who can reasonably explain topics like AI that are difficult for a non-expert like me to understand. The author ably explained the limitations of computerized thinking as opposed to that of a human brain. I have tended to think that exponential growth of memory would translate to cognitive thinking but the human brain is an organic computer that has developed in many different directions over millions of years. Now that I read this article, it becomes apparent that it will take a little more than 30 years or so to match the computing and learning ability inside our own heads.
