See the universal approximation theorem for fully connected perceptrons.

That's really nowhere near enough of a proof. You'd need to prove that a human brain is equivalent to a mathematical function, and that that function can be sufficiently approximated by a NN to be functionally identical.

Additionally UAT doesn't actually prove NNs can approximate any function. Non-continuous functions and infinitely large domains aren't covered.
