Considering that we only understand like 10% of the brain right now (or is it that we can only use 10% of our brains?) I don't see how it isn't feasible to develop a machine more powerful than the perceived capabilities of our brain.

The only thing the observer might have failed to realize is that he is comparing 50 years from now of computer technology to the understanding of the brain today. Will it be possible to develop a machine more powerful than the brain? Definitely. But, if technology continues to improve at its rampant pace then computer technology will continue to lag behind the understanding of the brain until the full capabilities of the brain are discovered.

"It may well be that we spectators, who are not divinely gifted as athletes, are the only ones able to truly see, articulate and animate the experience of the gift we are denied. And that those who receive and act out the gift of athletic genius must, perforce, be blind and dumb about it -- and not because blindness and dumbness are the price of the gift, but because they are its essence." - David Foster Wallace
