Your "not apples to apples" concession isn't adequate. You are essentially still saying that a machine running a neural network is compare to the brain of an animal or a person - just maybe different units of measurement. But they're not. It's a matter of dramatically different computing systems, systems that operate very differently (well, don't know exactly how animal brains work but we know enough to know they don't work like GPUs). Your Moravec article is only looking at what's necessary for computers to have the processing power of animal brains. But you've been up and down this thread arguing that equivalent processing power could be sufficient for a computer to achieve the intelligence of an animal. Necessary vs sufficient is big distinction.
