You could see chaos in say the QM activity in an electronic logic gate, but that chaos is limited in such a way that it is irrelevant-- a gate is just a gate.(February 4, 2016 at 8:27 pm)bennyboy Wrote: I'd say that if the brain represents a chaotic system whose job is to perform digital functions, then as you pulled neurons you'd lose "resolution," leading at some point to so much noise in the system that the digital functions could no longer be reliably performed, resulting in some total system failure at a critical mass.That's going to happen in an orderly system as well. We see it in digital devices.
Quote:That's also going to happen if it -can- be represented by logic gates. We see it in analog devices.Are you saying that logic gates are analog?
