And so long as life is about more than answers, humans—and yes, even chickens—will stay in the loop." > **— Kevin Slavin**, *2015, Edge annual question “What Do You Think About Machines That Think?”* [[reminders/Machine Succession/Life Requires More Than Machine Answers by Kevin Slavin|Life Requires More Than Machine Answers by Kevin Slavin]] > "Brains exist primarily to do two things, to communicate (transfer information) and compute. This is true in every creature with a nervous system, and no less true in the human brain. In short, the brain is a machine. And the basic structure of that brain, biological substrate of all things mental, is guided in no small part by information carried in the DNA." > **— Gary Marcus**, *2006, Edge Annual Question, “What Is Your Dangerous Idea?”* [[reminders/Consciousness/The Brain Is a Machine Built From Genetic Information by Gary Marcus|The Brain Is a Machine Built From Genetic Information by Gary Marcus]] > "Some topics in psychology have advanced beyond essentialist views. Memory, for example, was once thought to be a single process, and later was split into distinct subtypes like semantic memory and episodic memory. Memories are now considered to be constructed within the brain's functional architecture and not to reside in specific brain tissue. One hopes that other areas of psychology and neuroscience will soon follow suit. For example, cognition and emotion are still considered separate processes in the mind and brain, but there is growing evidence that the brain does not respect this division. This means every psychological theory in which emotions and cognitions battle each other, or in which cognitions regulate emotions, is wrong." > **— Lisa Feldman Barrett**, *2014, Edge Annual Question, “What Scientific Idea Is Ready for Retirement?”* [[reminders/Consciousness/The Brain Does Not Separate Cognition From Emotion by Lisa Feldman Barrett|The Brain Does Not Separate Cognition From Emotion by Lisa Feldman Barrett]]
