We're not really trying to model the organic brain; while some structures are somewhat inspired by some structures in the brain, the current learning structures are fundamentally quite different from biological brains.
While there is a bunch of research for modeling organic brains, IMHO it is primarily driven by neuroscience trying to understand how humans work, and not directly applicable to making computation more efficient.

- refulgentis 3y agoMaybe? This presupposes we know how the brain works (we don't). Then you can kind of walk it to "but what if it kinda worked like [my understanding of how the brain works], would it be more efficient?", but it's not really clear what conversation we're having at that point.
