Maybe that's what thinking is though. I mean our brains have neurons that connect to form natural matrices... who's to say that the nature of forcing energy through that mathematical structure isn't the very definition of thinking? |

I don't know what to say. I think the AI hype just go too far and now people believe random bullshit like in your comment.
Artificial neural networks look nothing like the neurons in our brain. They have very little in common. Artificial neural networks contain layers of neurons where each neuron is connected to all neurons of the previous layer with a floating point weight for each neuron - neuron pair and a floating point bias. This in theory allows you to approximate how the neurons in your brain work but even then it is just an approximation and you may need multiple neurons to simulate a single human neuron.
The next step up is spiking neural networks, which are actually biologically inspired and basically nobody cares about them because back propagation is hard. Why? Because spiking neural networks are not continuous functions. Instead, neurons send spikes and encode information in the timing of their spikes. Neurons only send their own spikes once they cross a certain threshold. So now you have non linear behavior. Again, you can simulate them using ANNs but the primary difference is that spiking neural networks are naturally sparse which is in complete opposition to your statement of "I mean our brains have neurons that connect to form natural matrices". It couldn't be further from the truth. You are now working backwards from the mathematical model of ANNs and are now telling people based on this information how the brain works, despite massive amounts of counter evidence. Do you understand how ridiculous that is? That is only something economists do, because there is money to be made from lying, not biologists or any other science.
