> We have no idea how the human mind works.

True, but we already know the so called "neural networks" that many computer scientists believe are how brain works aren't even close. They are all based on half-a-century old concept of neuron that was debunked many times over, experimentally by real neuroscientists.



That's correct, but it doesn't mean artificial neural networks cannot achieve intelligence, or even superintelligence. The fact that the human brain doesn't work like that doesn't automatically imply that (structurally) simpler models are fundamentally less capable.
