content: Most likely this will follow the same as fusion reactor technology where every 15 years a new generation will say that it will be ready in another 15 years... rinse and repeat. And to be honest, we are far closer to a fusion reactor than to "human-like" AI. I mean, we don't even have a consensus (or even an idea) of what the hell is intelligence, consciousness, etc. And we have a very good idea what and how a fusion reactor works. (In fact we can build them, but they are not efficient enough to be viable... yet) Now when it does happen, it will be something quite interesting. I really have no idea how it could work, it could go from a very controllable and useful for all human kind sort of deal... to something less comfy for us meatbags.
