"It will take several years."

A Noob question:

If it reaches the "breadth" of human brain, how close will that to the "Skynet becomes self-aware" moment.

What would it tell us about human, our society after it study, analyze millions, billions hours of FB, youtube videos?

As long as we do simple data processing, it won't become the dreaded Skynet. When we stuck a Reinforcement Learning system on top, feed it with reward signals and let it loose on the net or in real life robots, then it could become intelligent and develop its own goals/interests. So the Skynet part comes after reinforcement learning.
