> something complex about thought
Can you elaborate on this class of 'something'? There are intelligent behaviours that can be reproduced this way, so without more specifics I feel like you're making the same mistake you're condemning.
- jonmrodriguez 13y agoFor example, the glial cells are now believed to be vital to the brain's processing, but most "brain simulations" are still modeling neurons only, not glia. http://shahamlab.rockefeller.edu/pdf/CTDB_69_C_69003.pdf http://shahamlab.rockefeller.edu/pdf/CTDB_69_C_69003.pdf
- smosher 13y agoNot helpful. My question demands an answer from the person making the claim, unless you happen to know what they're thinking. Besides, this sounds nothing like what they're talking about. Worse, I don't think you're prepared to prove that a mostly pure-neuron simulation is incapable of giving rise to that certain complex quality apparently far removed from the level of the simulation.

No, questions can be answered by anyone, if they provide a relevant answer. What the person making the claim thought is irrelavent. The parent gave you a valid reply.
- smosher 13y agoI was literally asking someone what they were talking about. Instead I got an answer from someone else about something else. It's just some asshole who has one little nugget of information they want to spout at someone.
- Dylan16807 13y agoThe answer wasn't quite relevant to your question, but the specific person that answers doesn't matter unless you're asking for their expertise. So, basically, you're the only one being an 'asshole' here.
