well, if you're going to use that as a baseline you should also factor in that the rate of advancement is exponential. so maybe 10?

- jonhendry 16y agoThat probably helps more if the problem complexity is increasing linearly. If it's going up exponentially with problem size, especially if complexity increases at a faster rate than technology, then you're not going to make much progress. ie, if emulating a human brain is only N times as hard as emulating a flatworm, Moore's Law might do the trick. But if emulating a human brain is more like (flatworm complexity)^(number of cells in human brain - number of cells in flatworm brain) then Moore's Law is unlikely to help for a very long time indeed.
