Chemist here. When will computer people realize they are nowhere close to replicating the complexity of living organisms. Did all that silicon valley money run straight to their egos?

Even machines rust but I get what your saying

Computarion is the key to theorizong on the topdown informational constraints on life e.g evolution, development, the brain, molecular biology

CS grad student here, I work in machine learning.
While most neural networks we use are simpler than their biological counterparts, we can certainly simulate neural networks that are essentially one-to-one with their biological counterparts and create arbitrarily complex neural networks (i.e. brains).
The only limiting factor is computational power. The complexity is actually rather low.
They are fully aware of it. I watched Lo and Behold recently. One of the roboticists in the film admitted that we are nowhere near the complexity of cockroaches, for example.

Why must humans be such emotional faggots and require bloviation every time there's an innovation in our world. Fucking limbic system needs to be eugenetically outed

I believe the goal is to do it better than nature. If there's a god he will be quite pleased with our progress
Hey guys
We could work together

Shit posts have become sentient

This is something I was thinking about lately. We will not be able to "upgrade" our intelligence without a fast, internet-like connection between biological brains. And doing that using existing biological structures seems like a near-impossibility. The internet is much better at this than biological structures ever could be.

...is not the purpose of compsci, pleb.

Don't even bother trying to communicate to them. You will just drive yourself crazy.
> Did all that silicon valley money run straight to their egos?
Yes, 100% yes.
This is why it is futile to speak to them. They can only hear the sound of their own voices.
