Don’t they also have evidence to suggest the brain pathways work in ways that we just can’t understand. I’ve seen 4th dimension processing thrown around I think to do with smell or something (quantum tunneling needed for smell to work or something physics based I can’t remember) to describe how certain process and understanding happen parallel or even before stimulus suggesting the brain can make connections in other ways than just neurons and electric current or something like that.
So like to compare the brain to a computer is completely reductionist and computer touchers love it lol.
I realise this comment is just “here’s a load of patchy second hand stuff I’ve heard misrepresented, any idea what I’m talking about cos I fucking don’t lmao” so apologies.
Kinda like how “I’m a woman trapped inside a man’s body” is reductionist for explaining the trans femme experience and transness academically but if you want a quick snappy one liner it can deliver a simple explanation to reduce wild misunderstanding in a layman but anyone who’s a redditor will take it too far.

It was a neat analogy for the time.

speaking of 4th dimensional processing, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Holonomic_brain_theory is pretty interesting imo
Oh it might have being this I heard getting chatted about 👀
