Nice little read, thanks =)

I feel like not all our intelligence comes from our one mind, but its is a collective form made by all the living organisms that make up the human existence. I might like to believe I have freedom in the ways I think and everything I do. Simple this in not the case, I am controlled by all which makes me, me.

We may not be far off cloning the mind like a hard drive but will that really lead to artificial intelligence or is there more that is needed.

For the foreseeable future, I don't think we are as close as we are led to believe about artificial intelligence in machines. Each new step creates further work to be done, and each new work undoes the last.

I feel we could head toward infusion between human and machines long before **we** ever get close to artificial intelligence.  and then it could be possible that machines will create artificial intelligence through are own mistakes.

For now machines need human input to get an output and until that changes we wont see artificial intelligence.
