I hear that a lot, yet I never hear any convincing  arguments in that
regard...

So, hypothetically (and I hope not insultingly),
 I tend to view this as a kind of unconscious overestimation of the
awesomeness of our own
species ... we feel intuitively like we're doing SOMETHING so cool in our
brains, it couldn't
possibly be emulated or superseded by mere algorithms like the ones computer
scientists
have developed so far ;-)
