:word: I find it a mix of funny, arrogant, and ignorant when people make general claims like “there will be computers more powerful than the human brain in xx years.” Maybe crunch numbers faster or something like that, but never do everything the human brain does better.

But who knows, maybe I’m the ignorant one.

GREAT FIND!  
This type of thing is a nice reality check.  
Just to give some perspective, when I was a kid PCs did not exist.  
I know you are saying, “Yeah well you’re old” but, seriously think about it.  
I remember a world renound computer expert claimed that in 50 years almost EVERY job will be done by computers.  
Think about that for a minute.
