"Neurons Act Not As Simple Logic Gates, But As Complex, Multi-Unit Processing Systems"

Da studioso dilettante e incompetente mi permetto di aggiungere: Brown ha ragione, ma il modello tradizionale che affida ai neuroni l'elaborazione dei dati e ad una sinapsi il compito di trasmettere a un neurone i dati ricevuti da un altro neurone mi sembra troppo semplificativo. Se i neuroni sono meno di 100 miliardi perchè le sinapsi sono milioni di miliardi? Le sinapsi elaborano informazione più dei neuroni con la geografia dei loro collegamenti. Se i neuroni fossero soltanto circuiti AND o OR a due ingressi, con una rete di milioni di miliardi di interconnessioni potrei agevolmente realizzare le più complesse funzioni logiche.
