Okay, I'm usually the wide-eyed optimist when it comes to AI on this forum, but... I kind of doubt these claims, no offense to Blake Lemoine on a personal level. If Google had something like this then what would be the point of Gemini? Someone should've asked him that question, because it shouldn't be too difficult to release a weaker version of whatever he's describing either. Don't even get me started on Bard.

IMHO at least we know that he isn't holding these beliefs because "it talks!" You also raise good points though

First supercomputer capable of equaling the synaptic operations of the human brain being built
The neuromorphic supercomputer will manage 228 trillion synaptic operations per second, which is on par with the estimated number of operations in the human brain.
The world's first supercomputer capable of simulating networks at the scale of the human brain has been announced by researchers at the International Centre for Neuromorphic Systems (ICNS) at Western Sydney University.
DeepSouth uses a neuromorphic system which mimics biological processes, using hardware to efficiently emulate large networks of spiking neurons at 228 trillion synaptic operations per second - rivalling the estimated rate of operations in the human brain.
-snip
This platform will progress our understanding of the brain and develop brain-scale computing applications in diverse fields including sensing, biomedical, robotics, space, and large-scale AI applications.”
-snip-
The supercomputer is aptly named DeepSouth, paying homage to IBM's TrueNorth system, which initiated efforts to build machines simulating large networks of spiking neurons, and Deep Blue, which was the first computer to become a world chess champion. The name is also a nod to its geographical location.
