It’s true. You a neuroscientist?
Comment on Scientists reconstruct Pink Floyd song by listening to people’s brainwaves
Steve@communick.news 1 year agoNeurons are very much binary. They receive enough simulation to fire or they don’t. They don’t fire with variable strengths.
Brains are literally just biologically grown electrochemical computers.

They fire at different rates are though.

True but they are rates of events, which could be said to be 0 for nothing and 1 for a spike.
That being said there are definitely some things in the way neurons behave that are not very binary, from the potentials driving ion flow to the way certain proteins act. Complex on amazing levels but I’d say it’s stil just a gloopy predicting computer.
