Sure, progress will likely not be linear or without challenges, but we already have the human brain as proof that it is possible.

Mountains exist, but that doesn't mean we'll ever build a structure the size of Everest.

If you compare the historical rate of improvements in computing power and algorithms vs rate of improvements in building scale, you'll find one is a whole lot more likely to reach its goal, even if the rate of progress slows significantly.

There is absolutely no evidence to suggest one of these is more likely within reach. We at least know how Mt. Everest works.
