Human brain is said to be superior than computer memory but I believe that now a days computer memory is more superior because it has been made by the combination of hundreds of educated people and the main point for computer memory to be superior is that human brain forgets many things from their brain but if once stored in computer memory it will never be forgotten.

You can't make such a comparison. First, human brain can process information, analyze, and think independentely; while computer memory only stores information. So, if you are talking about the capacity of memory stored only, then it may look like computer memory is superior. But that's not entirely true, because we only use a fraction of our brains capabilities. While if you are talking about AI, here the human brain is clearly superior and it will continue to be. This is because the human brain is randioom, while artificial brains are not. They can only be psuedo random.

I totally agree.. because without our human brains the computer would not exist...We don't even know what our brains are really capable of..we only use about 6 to 10% of our brain power and that is the people who are genius'
