> Note that this means that for transmission over short distances, we are not constrained to all-or-nothing encoding and in fact amplitude-based encoding is preferable due to higher data rate and energy efficiency. This explains why short neurons never use spikes in the brain.↗ p. 36
Fast high-bandwidth interconnects use this, too, in optical fibre modulation for telecom, and not just plain Amplitude Modulation either. I guess the interconnect between the processing nodes of a supercomputer are connected in a similar manner.
I would really like to know how brain waves figure into this, does the brain do "wifi" between distant nodes?

You accidentally a word! Not just there, by the way.
