Mind blower #2: How many different shapes can a brain with 4 neurons recognize? 94. Evolution of vision neurons actually would have started out using a "chance built" circuit that could solve this 94-item 'recognition' problem. Then the DNA that solved the 94 would run repeatedly to recursively form the rest of the retina, giving the brain higher resolution, but using only one 94-pattern-solving DNA recursively. I think the major advancements in neural nets will come about once we start "wiring up" brains in interesting ways like this rather than the current "layer training" approach...The brain is recursive, and needs recursive wiring to be simulated.
