From my understanding of Kurzweil's arguments: Raw increases in computing power when applied to FMRI (and other brain-imaging systems) will allow greater resolution of the brain and allow us to reconstruct it (once we can see exactly what every neuron is doing at once, we, in theory, should be able to reverse engineer the system). I don't know how true this is, but I believe he's arguing that that is the technological progression worth watching. Not any particular new discoveries just higher and higher resolution imaging.
