The brain seems to carry out nearly all its sensory perception using generic, interchangeable modules, each of which learns (from scratch) to represent and process whatever signals it is exposed to. But what does each module actually do? What is the "API" between modules such that they can all learn and work in harmony?

People will live in google servers, robots will keep producing servers and connecting them together, while fixing and producing other robots and needed hardware. All the enviorment would be controlled from servers, by humans which has completelly lost their fisical existence and have moved to other dimension. Singularity.

This is guesswork based on conjecture. At each step he makes assumptions about the nature of the data, the appropriateness of his techniques, and the type and quality of the test procedures. It all seems a bit cooked. It's analogous to a maths thought "experiment", except that since it is entirely based on computer simulations, and not physical reality, there is no possible control for the results. His stated dislike for the messiness of studying actual brain physiology has led him astray.
