These are probably most accurate. All neurons communicate with a fuckton of other neurons, and somehow our consciousness/though is derived from that communication probably maybe.

Computer/human analogies natural have risen in popular explanations, but any deep inspection of the concept fails because we're so fundamentally different than computers. Neural network computers implement a rudimentary form of the concept of our brain on chips I guess.

>>60637586
We're not really all that different from machines; we both use electricity to process information. Our consciousness is simply an abstraction of a multitude of functions and algorithms layered on top of each other. Worse yet we don't even consciously make any of our own decisions. Our brain does everything on its own and our "mind" simply deludes itself into thinking it's in the driver's seat instead of being just a passenger who's recording everything.

From what I remember in grade 9 science class neurons have dendrites that sort-of attach to other neurons but there's always a small gap. When a neuron "fires" there's a potential charge that builds at the dendrite tip until it reaches a certain amount and crosses the gap kind of like electricity will do between conducting rods.

This can, maybe, trigger the other neuron to subsequently fire off down its own dendrites - some of them, none of them, all of them. Each neuron can be attached to lots of other neurons or few other neurons.

And the charge potentials are moderated by potassium and calcium ion channels on the surface of the neurons/dendrites which is why you die if you don't eat enough salt

So neurons aren't really binary. They're weird.
>>
>>60637752
We're the ghost in the machine

At least, I think some of us are. IMO people actually have to go through a phase of genuine neuron growth/plasticity to develop a self-aware consciousness and until that happens they're more like automatons working on highly advanced instinct.

I might not even be self aware yet :O

cut clips on one side of your jumper cables, and strip about 1/4 inch of isolation.
scratch about 1/2square inch of skin on your hand. put one cable on your "tear" other on your back. ask friend to start the car.

this will increase the vdc bias in your brain, it's perfectly safe as blood has low enough resistance deal with such high currents

Oh but it theoretically can. The fact that we need another paradigm to catch up with Moore's Law aside, given enough computing power you can simulate a brain, atom by atom, quark by quark. By taking that simulation and generalising (eg replacing simulating separate atoms with a really good conceptual model of a neuron, which won't be hard if we can simulate so many of them), you will be able to perform the exact same tasks as a real brain. Our universe is a discrete one, therefore you only need a finite anmount of resources to emulate a part of it. If it's physically possible, perhaps someday it will be done.

Let me interject for a moment, but what you refer as brain is actually a brain/spine or as I've recently taken to calling it, a nervous system
A brain isnt a complete system by itself but rather another organic component composing a full organism as defined by evolution
There is a brain and people run it everyday without knowing its actually just a part of the system they use
>>
>>60640813
How do you know I run on a brain+spine? You'd have to autopsy me to be certain of their presence, and even then you'd have no way to know if it's where my consciousness spawned from. The most you could do would be to remove to mess with both while I'm still being conscious, and even then, all you could point out would be a correlation and not a causation, and a particular one, not a generality.

Single-cores can still multitask, just not in parallel.
Brains can multitask, but that doesn't imply thinking two things at once.

I'm not against the idea that the brain can think two thoughts simultaneously though.

This. There are no cores, no ALU, no registers, just a network of independent neurons, communcating with other neurons to form thoughts, either isolated thoughts or clusterfucks of thoughts

The universe isn't exactly discrete.
Position and momentum are continuous. Energy levels are discrete; however there are still infinitely many energy states in any potential really (free particle, harmonic oscillator, infinite square well, or hydrogen atom)
Ergo, even in a finite location for a single particle, you have infinitely many allowed states.
This ultimately is because there is uncertainty in the universe, and it is a fundamental part of it. "particles" are actually both particles and waves of probability, and these waves are continuous objects that exist in all space.
The reason Moore's law is running into a barrier in the first place is precisely because of quantum uncertainty, which Moore himself believed would cause electron tunneling at 5nm.

Wrong, actually.
We use electro-chemical messaging.

Some is electrical, some is chemical. 6 of them for the most part. More if you consider every part of how the brain works. (including clean-up)

It's like just a big bundle of neurons that all get fired asynchronously and function like hardware interrupts. Neuron chains can be seen as threads of execution, but they're also many input to one output sort of deal so it's like the threads aggregate.

Comparing a cpu to a brain is not really applicable. the way a von neuman style computer works is more like a self replicating cell, not a brain.
