Ya but computers need to be programmed to think. So basically, a computer can only perform human thoughts that have been previously programmed at a high rate of speed. Saying a supercomputer can exceed the "capacity" of a human brain is impossible. some drink from the fountain of knowledge, others just gargle |

Quoting: chuckslik What? You only use half your brain? Why? Are you only half awake? You realize that is a misconception that has been proven wrong right? As is the 10 or 20 percent myths. Your entire brain, virtually all of it, is active all the time, expect when for instance sleeping, then it could go down to 10-20%. |
