> hardware is getting to brain level capabilities in processing power
is it? not picking a fight, but i was under the impression that we're nowhere near. could you expand on this?

Nobody is going to be better at raw number crunching than a computer, but there's also no computer that can recognise patterns as well as your brain can. At this point in time, the computer vs brains argument is very situational.
I agree – I guess I papered over this and basically interpreted GP as saying "computers are getting fast enough to be able to emulate the brain's pattern recognition skills", which seems way too strong – hence my question.
