to create an entity that functions completely on human designed hardware, and possesses all of the necessary human faculties to creatively design and solve any and all engineering problems that world class engineers are able to solve.
I would assume that engineers have to work in teams even more than computer programmers do.
Second, each mind would need to be educated to the state of the art in all human skills.
The relationship between the details of a brain and what a person is good at is one of those mysteries. Just being able to scan a brain and replicate the person as a program doesn’t even start to figure out how that person’s capabilities can be expanded into new fields.
The assumption here is that with speedups from realtime anyone can become good at anything. Care to name a skill that you yourself feel you would be unable to accomplish if you had the equivalent of 1000 years to learn it, and your operators could make tweaks to your neural structure to help you past roadblocks?
Sheesh, I guess that is why people don’t like my article. Too many assumptions. I’m assuming that “very good” is “good enough” because “very good” is extraordinary if you have near-infinite time.

Figuring out how to make those tweaks is going to be a long hard haul.
There’s a difference between getting very good at something, and being extraordinary.
Also, people who put in their 10K hours don’t converge. They gain mastery of a particular angle on their field of study.
