> 2. "Your brain isn't doing anything a neural network can't do." Really, now? They're both Turing machine approximators after all. Granted, ANNs aren't quite sophisticated enough to match the brain yet, but this capability gap is a difference of degree, not kind. But I don't think the similarity of the brain to ANNs really matters to my argument, as interesting as this discussion might be --- so I've edited my original comment to make it more general and to focus on my higher-level point.
