Yeah my engineering specialization is in artificial intelligence so I totally adhere to that theory 
Actually I thought we would be further along already in AI than we currently are, computational power really is an issue, especially now that Moore's Law has apparently reached its boundaries. I'm waiting for quantum computing to make the next big leap (which will have the potential to change everything). There was another big breakthrough last week having done an actual quantum teleportation or something along those lines so I am hopeful.
