Host Eli Mercer explores how AI architecture mirrors the human brain's hierarchical structure, from neurons to deep learning networks. Drawing on Johns Hopkins research and the 2024 Nobel Prize-winning work of Hopfield and Hinton, the episode examines whether artificial neural networks truly replicate cognition or merely copy its surface—and what gaps remain between silicon and synapses.
