      I agree that "capabilities" is too broad. I'm guessing that what they probably mean is storage capacity and/or calculation speed, which at least can be quantified.

      Sound like that guy have read a lot of Ray Kurzweil, especially the book "Singularity is near".
      The computing power estimate thing on the end is a direct quote from this book.
