A few minutes worth of “personal experience” doesn't really deserve the “personal experience” qualifier.

  Why not? It's just a minor example of what's possible, to show the general concept has already started.

    > show the general concept has already started The same way a todler creeping is the start of the general concept of space exploration.

      Yes. And even so, it shows remarkable effectiveness already.

        Like a car engine or a combine. The problem isn't the effectiveness of the tool for its purpose, it's the religion around it.

          We seem to be talking past one another. All I was talking about was the facts of how these systems perform, without any reverence about it at all. But to your point, I do see a lot of people very emotionally and psychologically committed to pointing out how deeply magical humans are, and how impossible we are to replicate in silicon. We have a religion about ourselves; we truly do have main character syndrome. It's why we mistakenly thought the earth was at the center of the universe for eons. But even with that disproved, our self-importance remains boundless.

This a straw man, the question isn't if this is possible or not (this is an open question), it's about whether or not we are already here, and the answer is pretty straightforward: no we aren't. (And the current technology isn't going to bring us anywhere near that)
