What do you mean "assuming" it's the right model - a known-good model is the model in human brains, which is definitely a series of neurons, no? what else would it be?
- larsiusprime 10y agoHere's one: neurons are cells, and cells are really complex and have all sorts of internal state on different scales (organelles, molecules, etc). Neural network models in computers are an extremely simplified abstraction by comparison. And that's still ignoring all the other things that may or may not be happening in the brain beyond the connections betweens neurons themselves.
- frgtpsswrdlame 10y agoI think you've fed majorly into the hype but to address your point there was a great comment on neurons (from someone who knows much more than I do) just a week ago: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13030766 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=13030766
