This is wrong, computers can operate at billions of operations per second. You can wave hands and say the words “thermodynamics” but it doesn’t actually mean anything.
The claim that computers just can’t do X because “physics” looks weaker every day. Intelligence isn’t magic, hardware today seems more than capable. I think Carmack is probably right, it’s not a hardware constraint at this point - it’s a software intuitive leap.

I think Carmack is probably right, it’s not a hardware constraint at this point - it’s a software intuitive leap. This is all ass-pulling. The hardware is or is not good enough (it's not). We either have found a software breakthrough or not (we haven't).
