Cathy O’Neil, mathbabe featured a guest post on her blog about the EU Human Brain project.
I am taking notes on truthful disparagement from Dirty Rant About The Human Brain Project.
Just listing the main section headers:
- We have no fucking clue how to simulate a brain.
- We have no fucking clue how to wire up a brain.
- We have no fucking clue what makes human brains work so well.
- We have no fucking clue what the parameters are.
- We have no fucking clue what the important thing to simulate is.
The guest post was authored by a neuroscientist.
Cathy has just posted her slides for a day long workshop on data science (to be held in Stockholm), if you want something serious to read after you stop laughing about the EU Human Brain Project.
