“YOUR BRAIN ISN’T A COMPUTER..!!!” ….. WELL THAT’S NOT QUITE RIGHT
Nonsense. A brain doesn’t compute but it calculates just fine thank you. The difference isn’t that complicated. You compute with perfect information(types) and you calculate with imperfect information (categories). A computer can’t select its own algorithms and weights. You can select your own algorithms and weights. But there is precious little difference between they way you iteratively search google, and your brain iteratively searches for meanings. You just can’t observe the search process in your mind any more than you can observe it in google, and your mind never stops while google waits for your next entry. Otherwise…. not very different AT ALL.
