DrmDoc Posted April 18, 2022 Share Posted April 18, 2022 On 4/16/2022 at 8:27 PM, Genady said: I've read today in a recent book on Artificial intelligence this statement: "a brain is a computational machine that happens to be made of neurons." (Stone, James. Artificial Intelligence Engines: A Tutorial Introduction to the Mathematics of Deep Learning (p. 183), 2020.) Is brain a "computational machine"? If so, in what sense? Although brain function may appear computational, computation is not what drives its functional matrix. What the brain is or isn't is likely more closely aligned with the biological engine at the basis of brain function. That engine is homestasis, which means the brain's functional output is driven by its metabolic equillibrium. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
