We can not even get close to saying our current networks can be even close to synapses in performance or functional because architecturally we still use feedforward networks no recursion, no timing elements, very static connections. Transitors will definitely have some advantages in terms of being able to synchronize information and steps to an infinitely better degree than biological neurons, but as long as we stick with transformers it's the equivalent of trying to get to space by stacking sand, could you get there eventually? Yes, but there's better ways.
