We've got quite a few years to go... but I firmly believe that we will actually beat his prediction. Artificial intelligence surpassing that of humans is an inevitability. If we accept that the 'mind' is the sum of the parts of the 'brain,' then we can safely say that simulation of a brain should produce a mind. Besides this line of attack, we could independently create a strong AI based on other methods. Just think of the myriad AI we have experienced in the past few years that people 20 or 30 years ago would've laughed at as ridiculous--Watson, Google car, and Deep Blue.
