I'm not sure exactly what Hinton means by "mortal" computers, but it sounds like he is embracing what Carson Mead was advocating with neuromorphic computing and analog VLSI in the 1980s. It will be really exciting for robotics if the electronics industry goes down that path.

Ha ha, thanks, Carver Mead- been awhile since I read his book, Analog VLSI and Neural Systems. He is really brilliant and awesome. Here's his website if anyone is interested: http://carvermead.caltech.edu/index.html
