That's exactly why AI is not an easy problem. It is the solution to how
the two worlds connect. If you can not explain the connection, you can not
solve AI. It's unproven if AI is a problem that we (humans) have the power
to solve. I do happen to belive we have the power to solve it, (or else it
would be kinda stupid for me to spend time on it), but I also know it is
just a leap of faith on my part to believe that.
