I’m not sure where the line would be drawn; I think it’s possible that neurons are getting speedups by exploiting quantum effects. I don’t think it’s using it to solve problems that aren’t in P.
My understanding is that any speedup would be fairly implausible, I mean isn’t the whole lesson of l’affaire D-Wave that you need maintained quantum coherence and that requires quantum error-correction which is why Scott Aaronson didn’t believe the D-Wave claims? Or is that just an unusually crisp human-programming way of doing things?
