An Analogy between Computing Components and Brain Structures
In the technological landscape, an intriguing analogy unfolds between computer components and the human brain’s architecture. The CPUs, foundational to traditional computing systems, are analogous to the subcortical structures of the brain. These subcortical areas, evolutionarily older and essential for basic life functions, parallel the CPU in handling core computing tasks and basic operations. Advancing Continue reading
