Biological neural nets have a benefit of being able to run massively parallel, I know basically nothing about silicon hardware, but I’m assuming that attempts to model hugely parallel systems like a brain on a serial architecture is going to be magnitudes more inefficient.

I do remember years ago reading an a response to a question someone asked about why can’t we just build chips that run in parallel and there’s the constraint of printing on a 2D surface that limits how far you can take that idea.
