Are you sure? If you had to pick a number what would you pick?
I have never built a useful neural network myself so I can't speak confidently, but I've read enough McCullough & Pitts, Cybernetics, Minsky, et cetera, to have the knowledge that there's a direct connection between a multitude of lab experiments done in the early 1900's to quantify the behavior of neurons in various animals, and then develop the principle ideas of ANNs from those findings.
Of course, there are hundreds, if not thousands or more of "components" in the brain, and I'm not sure how many of those components we have digital analogs for. But I feel like GPT-4 makes me think we've crossed the 10% threshold.
