You can also think of "the brain" as a collection of 10-20 separate organs, rather than one super complex one.

- pixl97 3y agoWhile true, the complexity of each organelle in the brain is still much higher than that of the typical organ elsewhere in the body. That and there is a high degree of connectivity and feedback between components where the API is completely and totally undocumented. It's not that you don't know what the known API calls do, you don't have any clue on how many API calls there even are. Accidently emulating one of these calls when attempting to trigger a different behavior can lead to wildly unexpected outcomes.
- BurningFrog 3y agoThe fact that these APIa are undocumented clearly disproves the existence of a (benevolent) God.
- wheelerof4te 3y agoI just love the programmer's analogy here.
