>> DeepMind is simply operating on another level.

Would you be so kind as to to explain what you mean here ?

Thanks !

They're taking features that are present in the brain that aren't modeled and are making computational models for them. They're not a gold standard. You can create your own in under an hour. It's not another level. It's bio-inspired computing.

Here.. take the 'Axon Hillock' https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axon_hillock code up a function for it, attach it to present day neuron models, make it do something fancy, write a white-paper and kazaam you're operating on another level..

Get it?

ok I get it :) Nice little sarcasm, I'm loving it :-)
