Supercomputers are now near human intelligence!
Roadrunner runs human visual system. Article from LANL themselves. http://www.lanl.gov/news/index.php/fuseaction/home .story/story_id/13602 Regarding the world's new best friend, http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IBM_Roadrunner Los Alamos researchers are already using the computer to mimic extremely complex neurological processes. Los Alamos researchers believe they can study in real time the entire human visual cortex To date, computers have been unable to match human performance on such visual tasks as flawlessly detecting an oncoming automobile on the highway or distinguishing a friend from a stranger in a crowd of people. Roadrunner is now changing the game. The achievement throws open the door to eventually achieving human-like cognitive performance in electronic computers. The ability to achieve human levels of cognitive performance on a digital computer could lead to important insights and revolutionary technological applications.
