The human brain is estimated to have approaching 10^11 neurons (most of them in the cerebellum).
However, a neuron is much more than a single parameter. The brain is estimated to have from 10^14 to 5x10^14 synapses.

I'm pretty confident that algorithm/hardware design insights over the next decades will allow us to build human-rivaling cognitive abilities on basically todays consumer tech (analogously to how computer chess improved over time).
If I had a magic button I would not only pause AI development but set it back 10 years. Sadly I have no influence on events and those who do, don't care about the future of humankind or actively wish us dead.
