Are chips like humans? After all chips can replicate all five senses and the brain. They are the basis of seeing, smelling, hearing, feeling, tasting and thinking machines.
So do we behave in the same way as chips? For instance, assuming a child’s nervous system is made up of the same material as an adult’s, and assuming the signals transmitted along a child’s nervous system are the same sort of signals as in an adult, can we assume that the signals get to their destination quicker in a child, than in an adult, because a child is smaller?
In chips, obviously, as we go down the Moore’s Law trail to 65nm and beyond, the distance signals have to travel gets less, and the speed at which the chip operates increases.
If this happens in children, then it accounts for the sponge-like learning abilities of small children and their propensity to get bored very easily.
Time probably moves much slower for children, with these accelerated processing powers, than it does for adults. Looking back to one’s childhood, the time did seem to go much slower than it does now.
The effect of these accelerated processing powers may mean that, by the time a child is 20, it may have assimilated more than half its entire life-time learning.
But then think of small adults. Does the same thing apply? Do they have faster processing abilities than large people?
If so, it’s good news for the smaller races, and one wonders if this means that it’s the small, rather than the meek, that shall inherit the earth? Maybe Jesus really meant small and this was mistranslated.
If so, it’s bad news for Texans.
