I wouldn't say not a chance, we have no clue what the brain does.
Only because a brain can learn building on old concepts doesn't mean anything about the basic algorithm being different. The brain is a much bigger and longer living neural network.
What they were explaining with the child learning character recognition with the knowledge about strokes. Why would you think our brain doesn't simply connect some of the stroke recognizing neural networks to a higher level neural network built for character recognition. You can increase the depth of the network basically indefinitely. Stack various neural networks to produce more complex ones, etc.
- Shikadi 9y agoI don't think it's a good idea to be calling the human brain a neural network in this context, as cnns/dnns only sort of vaguely resemble brain neurons. The differences are massive, both due to different neurotransmitters as well as different connections being formed, and other stuff
- carlmr 9y agoThat doesn't have much to do with my point, also the brain is the original neural network. If anything you should argue to call artificial neural networks by a different name.
