Just because the brain does it one way, doesn't mean it's the best way. Birds versus jets, nature versus artificial.
That being said, the brain is basically the only working example of true intelligence we have, so perhaps trying to emulate it isn't a bad idea.
But I have this sci-fi notion that eventually the AI community will produce some sort of intelligence that is unimaginably different from our current notion of a brain.
- Estragon 12y agoThe neurons in the IBM chip are only slightly better approximations to biological behavior, nowhere near close enough to hope that it will accidentally result in brain-like intelligence. Last I heard, the behavior of biological neurons was so badly understood that even the behavior of the 300-neuron C. elegans worm could not be accurately simulated, even though the neuron connections have been fully determined. That was about 8 years ago, though.
