I mean, if you divorce it from the buzzwords like that, the question becomes trivial:

* will we at some point in the future be able to model biological processes on a computer better (even if only slightly) than we currently can, at some point in the future? Obviously yes

* will we fully solve biological systems so that we can model them in their entirety with 100% accuracy? Not in this lifetime and probably not in the next generation.

The question when phrased this way is basically asking (depending on interpretation) either: will we make any progress ever? or will we make all the progress?
