I frankly don't even care where we are today. That's not my concern. My concern is where this will be in 20, 30 years, that's where even the "well it's not there today!" folks tend to get a bit quiet and shrug their shoulders.

30 years is not a long period of time, I remember 30 years ago like it was yesterday. 

What exists today and the research that is done today is the precedent and determines the range of possibilities for what exists 20-30 years from now.

Or 40? Or 50 years? It's not terribly difficult to scale this to a time line where the so-called experts shrug their shoulders and basically concede "well good luck". 

35 years ago the most cutting edge piece of technology in most people's homes was an NES, I remember most homes didn't even have a personal computer at that time. 5 years prior to that? Maybe a VCR. 

Today my refrigerator has more processing power than an NES by several times over. 

We're not even accounting for AI itself designing chips and technology and even other AI, which will probably happen at some point if you keep pouring billions/trillions of dollars into its development and have all these mega corporations hyper incentivized to create something better and better.
