Of course, conceptualizing a different method of intelligence is not exactly a trivial task, else it would already have been done. It could happen tomorrow, it could happen decades from now, or it might not happen for centuries, if ever. It might end up being far simpler to adapt biological brains to the tasks we want AI to perform, or simply interface human brains with computers to create hybrids with the advantages of both.

Well, this is the trick. It ain't easily conceptualized. We can't even conceptualize our own intelligence.
