- umvi 3y agoIt's a bit cargo cult-y to claim that synthetic SNNs and human brains are equivalent just because they share some similarities.
- andai 3y agoIsn't a human brain a spiking neural network? And a successful one at that? I didn't say what we can build now is identical to a human brain (...why would anyone say that?), I said we have proof that the concept is viable, because a spiking neural network is literally the thing reading these words right now.
- cwillu 3y agoHaving checked a mirror, I stand by my initial assessment.
- andai 3y agoMy point was that humans are arguably quite successful, their success is due to their neural networks, and their neural networks are spiking (in contrast to the ones used in LLMs). The spiking might be important, or it might not. (One way to find out!) But we certainly have proof that it can be made to work!
