I mean, he was right … for what we knew at that time. He predicted correctly that the only way to achieve a general intelligence it would require to mimic the extremely complex neural networks in our brain that the hardware of the time was very far away from achieving. He could not predict that things would move so fast on the hardware side (nobody could have)that made this somewhat possible. We are atill I would argue a bit out in having the appropriate computer power to make this a reality still, but it now is much more obvious that it is possible if we continue on this path
