It's a dream of a very tiny minority of human beings, who are
so far lost in their blind worship of technology that they
can no longer see the forest for the trees.
We already have human minds, you see. We don't need artificial
ones.
Duh.
Although we definitely need minds other than those that are
like _yours_, which has been crippled by said blind worship of
technology.

There will never be anything but the illusion of artificial
intelligence.
You can build an artificial brain (maybe), but you can't build an
artificial mind, which is non-physical.
A so-called "artificial mind" will never have intuitions or
inspiration, without which a mind is not a mind. Without which we
would still be living in caves.
Artifcial Intelligence: When the real thing just won't do.
Technology is a wonderful thing. But there sure are a lot of
headcases around who think that it is the _only_ thing.
