Strong AI can be done, but you need to encode agency and intent into the thing and the only agency and intent we allow is self driving cars, not some evil AI which can do the kinds of intents us humans think of.

I think strong AI requires a body. And probably a body that is legible in a society. Which means a primate body.

Someday there will be societies with digital bodies, but that will have to be bootstrapped with primate body AIs.
