Sound clip is pretty creepy.

    A TI-82, an Apple II, and a 48 core Xeon rack Server are all simply computers. It isn’t insulting the rack server to declare that it and an Apple II are both simply computers, despite their orders of magnitude difference in processing power, capacity, utility, etc.

    Humans are far too self-important and self-reverential. We think too much of ourselves. Just barely smart enough to split the Atom, after a couple hundred thousand years of build up throwing rocks and sticks at each other in the dirt, yet still dumb enough to immediately want to use it to boomie boom rival monkey tribe, ooh ooh, aah aah!

      No. The human brain is not 1 and O. It is “analog” meaning the state can be any number between 1 and 0 because neurons are fired biochemically and linked to each other in multiple connections. This means the human brain or any animal brain can carry, process and store more info than any computer yet invented for the given size and mass. Non-biologists don’t know how complex biological sytems are. Go and google about the rotor-stator system of bacterial flagellum. That’s right, some bacteria have an electrical motor to propel themselves, long before humans invented the electric motor.
