Why atheism is irrational
RE: Why atheism is irrational
(October 5, 2013 at 3:13 am)Vincenzo "Vinny" G. Wrote: the nature of how an abstraction layer would look in a computer network, as opposed to a mind.
Are those two that different?

As far as we can tell, the brain is a massive network of neurons.
Some artificial neural networks try to emulate this behavior of the brain... albeit... with much much less neurons, due to hardware restrictions...
Maybe one day, we'll get there.
And then we may have all the proof required to show how a sufficiently complex neural network gives rise to the high level phenomenon that we call consciousness. Or not... We'll have a neural network much larger than any brain and it will just be a stupid thing...
We'll see.
My bet goes to the first option, but I bet little. I don't like to lose.
