The article also tries to disprove the reasoning on how our brains don't work like computers.]]> 2019-11-20 17:59:32 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414183657 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414188035 A lot of research I found discussed how adaptive and advanced the brain is compared to computers, and in Chapter 2 this book backed that research and discussed just how much our brain is doing without us knowing. Talking about how even the smallest decisions put our brains through a lot.]]> 2019-11-20 18:05:30 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414188035 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414197924 Talks about how brains are more adaptive and unpredictable, whereas computers are more repetitive. It discusses how computers are more efficient in their pre-programmed responses, while brains have a wider variety of responses they can explore.

It also includes details about how memtransistors can create a more brain like computer. It also goes more into depth on how these transistors can be created.]]> 2019-11-20 18:17:16 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414199118 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414199941 This article discusses when and why transistors are used and provides some background information on them.

This also includes how adaptive our brains are and how we can continue to develop transistors to work in similar ways to our brains.]]> 2019-11-20 18:18:34 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414200262 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414204493 This document shows how devices are used to record data from our nervous systems and provides information on how neurons and transistors work in this process. It also includes diagrams to demonstrate some of the process and also has a section specifying how neuronal cells are stimulated.]]> 2019-11-20 18:23:42 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414204493 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414205667 The author provides information on how our brains and computers work to do different actions, such as, input or for storing information. They also go in depth on how both artificial and human intelligence need to be developed.]]> 2019-11-20 18:25:02 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414205667 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414209884 This article talks about how a developed neuron transistor will be able to mimic a neuron's actions. It mentions how the transistor will have to learn to behave like a neuron and work like one. Also touching on how this neuron transistor will be able to work at faster speeds than current transistors. ]]> 2019-11-20 18:29:58 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414209884 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414220366 Kwabena Boahen, a current Professor at Stanford University, discusses how advanced our brains are and the differences in how our brains and computers work. He suggests we should look to develop technology that works in a similar way to our brains.]]> 2019-11-20 18:42:55 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/414220366 ckmorris2001 https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/422602776 My essay looks into how neurons and transistors compare in our brains and computers and goes more in depth on how transistors and neurons are used to gather information about our nervous systems, in order to use this for technological developments.]]> 2019-12-11 08:51:08 UTC https://padlet.com/ckmorris2001/essay4/wish/422602776
