Artificial neural networks used in AI (like those running ChatGPT) are vastly oversimplified models of biological neural networks: artificial neurons are modeled as binary (firing or not firing) whereas real neurons operate on continuous analog potentials; artificial networks have far fewer connections than biological brains; and recent evidence suggests biological neurons can sustain quantum coherence in microtubules, orders of magnitude more complex than digital artificial systems.

Bernardo KastrupEvidence Quote
“All the AI all the agentic AI and language models that you see today are digital artificial neuronet networks...We make oversimplifying assumptions...a neuron...that output is binary. It's either zero or one...A neuron goes through a continuous continuous levels of of potentials...those potentials...everything in between they have cause effectiveness as well”
