The question is: we are further away from what? The goalposts differ wildly, depending on who you ask. From a 1:1 copy of the human mind we are very far, because we also don't have an idea what a human mind is, heck we don't even have a common definition or understanding. Is a soul part of the mind? Should the AI have a soul too? And the rabbit hole goes only further down. So while for some the singularity might be around the corner, for others it's lightyears away. I guess the only way to have everybody agree is if the singularity hits us Skynet-style and I'm definitely not looking forward to that.
