Our Ability To Perceive The World Around

A Genius Is Somebody Who Seemingly Just Reaches Out Of Nowhere.

Even Today No Computer Can Understand Language As Well As A Three-year-old Or See As Well As A Mouse.

What Do We Mean By "knowledge" Or "understanding"? And How Do Billions Of Neurons Achieve Them? These Are Complete Mysteries. Admittedly, Cognitive Neuroscientists Are Still Very Vague About The Exact Meaning Of Words Like "understand," "think," And Indeed The Word "meaning" Itself.

Even Though Its Common Knowledge These Days, It Never Ceases To Amaze Me That All The Richness Of Our Mental Life - All Our Feelings, Our Emotions, Our Thoughts, Our Ambitions, Our Love Life, Our Religious Sentiments And Even What Each Of Us Regards Us His Own Intimate Private Self - Is Simply The Activity Of These Little Specks Of Jelly In Your Head, In Your Brain. There Is Nothing Else.
