Several of these recent studies read like the brain has specs, like a fancy GPU.

Scary thought but I guess at some level it had to be true.

Why should Discovery of these "specs" be scary? I find it fascinating, by know the limitations of myself I can actively choose to think in ways that I am more likely to be good at. I can use that new active process of thinking to help me, for example, design software that is easier to reason about.

Some people are afraid of the truth. Many questions people don't like the answer to.
