Why would optimization decrease the gap, surely it would improve both equally.

Optimization for the x86 platform will allow devs to make great games on both consoles that look pretty much identical. It isn't like last gen where games had to be seperately optomized for the Cell and PowerPC architectures. Now it's just plug and play in terms of optimization.

Games are already seeing tons of parity now, at least much more than at the beginning of the generation. I expect that trend to grow. 

optimizing hte PS4's GPU will advance just as much as optimizing use of the X1's GPU but the PS4's is still 50% more powerful.  Same with the RAM.  His point was that optimization will help both and therefore it doesn't make sense for that to close the gap.
