Ars Technica: AI vs the brain, and the race for general intelligence is a decent overview on the discussion about the current crop of neural networks, and how those differ dramatically from how arrays of neurons in biology are structured, and what that might mean in the pursuit of "AGI".
"I guess I am not optimistic that any kind of artificial neural network will ever be able to achieve the same plasticity, the same generalizability, the same flexibility that a human brain has," Baker said. "That's just because we don't even know how it gets it; we don't know how that arises. So how do you build that into a system?"
(That's Christa Baker of NC State.)
