Yeah, just see what happens if the CPU overheats. :-D

Computers compute. They are little like a gazillion calculators. AI
experts have concluded that the human mind doesn't work that way. It
learns patterns instead of calculating. You can "emulate" that with a
computer though. Our minds seem complicated but in really what drives
us is trying to stay in a "comfort zone." The simplest creatures also
work this way.

Jason,
AI in computers are only mimicking the real consciousness of human
beings. Computer intelligence will only be as good as the human
programmers who created it. For example, it is a fact that an IBM
computer was able to beat Kasparov in a chess championship setting.
But it was programmed to calculate possibilities in chess moves by
brute force. The real consciousness comes from the humans who
programmed the computer.
IMO, this will hold true for any other developments in AI in the
future. In the end, computers will only be silicon chips (even
quantum chips) pretending to have human consciousness.

Computers today are savants with the intelligence of a
spider or a cockroach. 20 years in the future, they will
have the intelligence and the intuition of a two year old.
There are many facets of intelligence. Memory power and
computing power are only one aspect of intelligence.
LQ - This is logic quotient. These people are good in
maths. logical steps for solutions.
CQ - Corelation Quotient. The ability to corelate diverse
factors and see how they fit.
MQ - Memory quotient. Ability to recall information is a
type of intelligence and plays a role in survival.
TQ - Tribulation quotient. the ability to deal with
stressfull and chaotic envionment.
EQ - Emotional quotient. The ability to handle emotions and
compartment them. Empathy the ability to put in other's
shoes and see their POV is a type of intelligence.
