Also, it's always funny to notice how the brain, throughout history, has always been compared to the latest technology available. For a long time people said "the brain must be similar to a clock".
Wouldn’t you say that this is how evolution and the spread of information works, in a system that has the spark of some life chemistry?
Of course… The hole in that theory is that evolution never found the wheel.
The steel man in that theory is that it invented the neurological and social processes that then went on to invent the wheel. And the platypus and the clap.
Edit: I forgot to bring it back around and make a point ;)
I’m saying that humans invented clocks and CPUs. We only have metaphors that have emerged from the still misunderstood ether of the informatic universe.
