I read somewhere once that we tend to think of our mind in terms of whatever the current most complex technology is. At one point we thought of the brain as a fantastically complicated plumbing system, and later as a telephone switchboard. I wonder if in another decade or so will the idea that our brains work like computers seem as wrong as the idea that they work like plumbing systems.
