Jeff has been at this for a really long time now. If it is this hard to make progress, it is likely basic research that just requires a hard slog and also may not turn out in the end as all basic research is risky. My default bet then is against him because most basic research fails, with a small chance of success.

Got introduced to Jeff after watching him keynote a conference about a decade ago. He's a great speaker. Also thought they had some interesting tech when it came to computer vision at the time. Sadly it never took off and then ConvNets blew whatever Numenta was doing out of the water. Surprised even with someone like Jeff that Numenta hasn't had any commercial success.
