> "Just to be absolutely clear, we don't know how most kinds of thoughts are represented in the brain." I've spoken about this recently. It's important that we keep in our minds a particular distinction about how we teach and approach things in Machine Learning and Neural Networks: that is, we are creating computing architectures that emulate a model for how we think the brain might operate, and we've achieved some non-trivial successes in doing that. We can't forget that it is only a model that allows us to develop some intuitions about how the algorithm works, but decidedly not how the brain works.
