I'm inclined to _believe_ that strong AI is very likely, I don't
necessarily think be by _design_ as in current "expert systems", more
likely it will arise as a (hopefully) controlled evolutionary process
involving self configuring hardware/software.
I see no reason why it must be modeled in a one to one fashion with the
human brain, after all there is a great deal of superfluous functionality
in the brain and in any case the hardware base is likely to be _very_
dissimilar.
Try to think of it as evolution in action. -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE-----
