A computer is a fancy abacus. No matter how many beads or rungs or other fancy “connections “ are made a computer has more in common with an abacus than a human brain.
A slime mold has more understanding than all computers. A human brain is a fancy slime mold. The human brain has more in common with a slime mold than it does with a computer.
The abacus can never hope to be a slime mold. An abacus can never hope.
A computer will not likely ever be a brain. A computer will be the tool of a brain.
An abacus owes its existence to a slime mold more than the slime mold owes its existence to an abacus.
This does not means that a computer will not out calculate, “outsmart “ a human brain but that a computer will never “know” or “ understand “ unless it first becomes aware. Awareness is the seed of consciousness. Understanding is the fruit of consciousness.

This actually applies to all of us, all of we Homo sapiens. . Collectively, we too are part of a giant organism called Life (on/in/WITH Earth).

Consider:
The Slime Mold and the Abacus
A computer is a fancy abacus. No matter how many beads or rungs or other fancy “connections “ are made a computer has more in common with an abacus than a human brain.
A slime mold has more understanding than all computers. A human brain is a fancy slime mold. The human brain has more in common with a slime mold than it does with a computer.
The abacus can never hope to be a slime mold. An abacus can never hope.
A computer will not likely ever be a brain. A computer will be the tool of a brain.
An abacus owes its existence to a slime mold more than the slime mold owes its existence to an abacus.
This does not means that a computer will not out calculate, “outsmart “ a human brain but that a computer will never “know” or “ understand “ unless it first becomes aware. Awareness is the seed of consciousness. Understanding is the fruit of consciousness.
