To make the argument more clear: Kurzweil says "The genome can be compressed into X bytes, so that's an upper limit on the complexity needed to simulate the human brain." Meyers says: "No. The genome says 'make a protein with this shape'. We don't understand the full complexity of the brain until we understand all of the physics (including potential quantum effects) that go into protein folding + all the different environmental effects. Further, the information in the physics and protein folding stuff is much much greater than information in the genome".
