Imagine a four-core, 64-bit Forth AI CPU
designed to run a not-quite-maspar but still
somewhat parallel artificial intelligence in English
http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/mindforth.txt or in
http://www.scn.org/~mentifex/DeKi.txt German.

Such a specialized, Strong AI Forth CPU could
devote one core to visual processing and memory;
a second core to auditory input and memory;
a third core to robotic motor memory and output;
and a fourth core to automated reasoning with

in English, German or Russian.

The 64-bit Forth CPU could be architecturally
simple by dint of leaving out all the customary
circuitry used for floating-point arithmetic, and
Forth would serve as its own AI operating system.

I think that everything you said here sounds neat. But maybe 48 bits would suffice if addressed on a 48 bit word boundary. Actually, that's huge amount of RAM. I wonder if it was built today, how much energy that would consume and how big of a box you would need to put it in. Then multiply it by 4 because each core gets its own huge swath of RAM.

I'm afraid that you need to know how to make a strong AI*
in the first place, THEN start to think how to implement
it. Doing it the other way around is not supposed to
give significant gain...
