Would you infer that IP is the acme of discovery about the nature of the Brain?
A
Scientists may say that the function of the human nervous system is ‘prima facie digital’, but to justify research funding, they draw parallels between brains and computers. Yet, they admit in private that they are flummoxed how the brain reasons or retains memories.
