Welcome to c/science_memes @ Mander.xyz!
A place for majestic STEMLORD peacocking, as well as memes about the realities of working in a lab.
Rules
- Don't throw mud. Behave like an intellectual and remember the human.
- Keep it rooted (on topic).
- No spam.
- Infographics welcome, get schooled.
This is a science community. We use the Dawkins definition of meme.

Does not follow. Different architectures require different specialisations. One is research into something nature presents us, the other (at least the engineering part) is creating something. Completely different fields. And btw the analytical tools neuroscientists have are not exactly stellar, that's why they can't understand microprocessors (the paper is tongue in cheek but also serious).
They are. If you doubt that, you do not understand computation. You can read up on Turing equivalence yourself.
The fuck has "fast" to do with "complex". Also the mechanisms probably aren't terribly complex, how the different parts mesh together to give rise to a synergistic whole creates the complexity. Also I already addressed the distinction between "make things run" and "make them run fast". A dog-slow AGI is still an AGI.
And neither do microprocessors. A thing does not need to be a Turing machine to be Turing complete.
Mathematical would be accurate.
Nope the Turing machine is one example of a Turing complete system. That's more than "shares a name".
You're probably thinking of the Turing test. That doesn't have to do anything with Turing machines, Turing equivalence, or Turing completeness, yes. Indeed, getting the Turing test involved and confused with the other three things is probably the reason why you wrote a whole paragraph of pure nonsense.
Dear lord, I found Elon's Lemmy account.
Elon, judging from his twitter takes, understands this stuff even less than you do.
