That’s a remarkable level of resilience for a brain design which is, speaking professionally, a damn ugly mess.
...with vital functions inherited from reptiles. But it’s been tested to death through history, serious failures thrown out at each step, and we’ve lots of practical experience and knowledge about how and why it fails. It wasn’t built and run first go with zero unrecoverable errors.
I’m not advocating using evolutionary algorithms or to model from the human brain like Ray Kurzweil. I just mean I’d allow for unexpected breakdowns in any part of the system, however much you trust it. At least enough so if it fails it fails safe.
That’s only my opinion, and it shouldn’t be taken too seriously as I don’t have much knowledge in the field at this time, but I thought I should explain what I meant.
