On which sources are you basing your statements? What else could it be, if not a kind of associative/predictive/computation+memory system?
And as to the IBM effort, I think they are doing the right thing. Whatever brings us close to having the hardware that can do the job (needs to be at least on the same scale as the human brain, that features around a petasynaps of connectivity/memory)...
- wwweston 13y ago> What else could it be It doesn't matter what else it could be. Either there's convincing evidence/argument that we can get computers to do everything the brain apparently does, or there isn't. Right now, we're in the later state.
- dchichkov 13y agoI dunno. But after I've seen a neuro network dreaming about hand-written digits, I couldn't think about the brain as of something other than a large neuro-network any more. It is still beautiful and magical to me, but it is magic without magic. The video that I've mentioned is still available here: http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/digits.html http://www.cs.toronto.edu/~hinton/digits.html
- seanmcdirmid 13y agoIf you read the paper * , the IBM programming language's model really isn't far from that. Even the article indicates that you are basically building a modular neuro-network. * Find the link somewhere at http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/4797 http://lambda-the-ultimate.org/node/4797
