Before you get too excited, (from the IBM article): It is important to clarify that we have not built a biologically realistic simulation of the complete human brain. Rather, we have simulated a novel modular, scalable, non-von Neumann, ultra-low power, cognitive computing architecture at the DARPA SyNAPSE metric of 10^14 synapses that itself is inspired by the number of synapses in the human brain.
