Amount of computing power needed for whole-brain emulation?

[ElliotSmith]

What is the approximate amount of computing power that is required for real-time emulation of the entire human brain?

Such computing power would be necessary for theorized AI systems in the future.

From my understanding, no computer that exists in the world today can do this, yet...

What is the approximate amount of computing power that is required for real-time emulation of the entire human brain?

I believe that our current understanding of the complexities of the human brain is FAR from adequate to even think about being able to know what a full-brain simulation would take.
