This is a kind of bias of its own. People who work in a specific field, who are aware of the current obstacles and constraints, have some difficulty putting that knowledge aside for a minute.

Lifting constraints fundamentally changes some problems. Imagine the ability to simulate a population of a few thousand brains, with each generation run of a few minutes. Artificial selection is then enough to create an intelligent simulated brain.

By then, you may throw all current AI algorithms in the trash bin. Unfathomable to any self respecting AI expert today.
