At the same time, pretending that brains don't obey the laws of computation has its own implications, which can confuse unprepared minds into thinking: 1) That brains are something supernatural, instead of physical information processing systems that can be analyzed and understood as such. 2) That digital turing-complete computers are limited and can't possibly do the kinds of complex processing that biological computers can do Which is also misleading A brain is not a Turing machine, but a Turing machine can be a brain. Biological brains are just a subset in the space of all possible computers But I don't think either of us is confused, so this is just a conversation about the semantics, which I'm not very interested in
