My opinion - what's holding us up is simply that we don't understand intelligence yet (as we wish to create it - i.e. "like us") . That's all. it's meaningless to say that we won't have enough computing power, until we know at least the general outline of the problem - and we just don't. As the article says - "Expecting to create an AGI without first understanding how it works is like expecting skyscrapers to fly if we build them tall enough."
