Definitely. The metaphor breaks down at some point. > Another difference is that there is no machine code for the brain. There isn't some set of primitive instructions programmers could target to instruct the connectome. We don't know this yet. But what we do know is, by directly stimulating certain parts of the brain, we can recreate certain sensations. I looks to me like this is close as close to some "primitive instruction set" as we've come.
