Over the last couple of centuries, machines have assisted humans to achieve great development in human society and helped humans attain extensive knowledge. The prompt claims that the machine will never be able to surpass a human brain, as the machine is just a tool of the human mind. However, I mostly disagree with the above argument for two main reasons, which I will elucidate below. Although I concede that the human brain is quite intricate, it can be challenging for a machine to supplant it.
To begin, the machine are able to perform a given task with much better efficiency than human in many cases. There are no doubts about the above claim, as we can see many examples of it in our day-to-day lives. Machines are replacing humans in many laborious tasks. Machines can work in environments where humans cannot even survive, and the Mars rover is a perfect example of this. Machines have even given a toe-to-toe competition to the grand master in a game of chess. Thus, it is fair to say that machines can perform tasks better than humans in many fields. These claims are likely to become stronger over time.
Secondly, there has been a great development in the working of machines in the last few decades. Machine learning, neural networks, and other such disciplines in science and mathematics are major boons in the development of machines. With the advance of AI (Artificial Intelligence), machines are now, to a good extent, able to replicate tasks that were previously considered impossible for a machine. Examples of such task include converting a text to speech with a good fluency, autonomous driving, etc. With the advance of humanoid robots like Sofia (a well-known humanoid robot), the boundaries between humans and machines have been reduced significantly. Recent technologies like ChatGPT, which is an AI assistant, are considered a boon in the field of AI. Hence, we can say that machines are becoming more and more human like and might just pass humans someday.
Lastly, however, there are certain skepticisms among the scholars about the extent to which machine can advance. As of today, even the most complicated supercomputers are not on par with the speed at which the human brain can perform calculations within a given timeframe. Also, there is the factor of emotion, which is still peculiar to humans. But with the recent development of quantum computers, the first scenario is likely to disappear. Also, if we factor in the age of the machine, it is still in the novice stage, and someday it might develop more complicated functionality like showing emotions.
In conclusion, I believe it is still too early to comment on whether machines can surpass humans or if they will just be a tool for the human mind.
