I’m going to go out on a philosophical limb and observe that there is evidence that complex neural networks - namely, humans - have invented symbolic representations, perhaps because they are more efficient mechanisms for computation for certain classes of problems.https://twitter.com/plinz/status/955300914117644288 …

High five on that one. Our contemporary ANNs are akin to organic neurons as the first semiconductor by Bardeen, Brattain, and Shockley are to modern integrated circuits.

But do you think biological neurons are superior? Random access, long range connections, weight adjustments, real-valued computation, reliable determinism are all very expensive. At the end of the day, implementation details don't matter, the complexity of computed functions does
