> Study urges caution when comparing neural networks to the brain

They keep telling me this and, yet, I can't stop doing it. The more I learn about neural networks, the more I feel like I understand my own brain (whether accurate or not). And conversely, the more I think about thinking, the better my theories about how I'd build ML-based system to solve specific problems (admittedly, most untested). Neural networks seem like too useful of a model to simply give up because they aren't completely accurate.

Of course, this is all just for personal use - mostly introspection. I wouldn't exactly do medical work based on the model.
