The brain is a complex biological organ of great computational capability that constructs our sensory experiences, regulates our thoughts and emotions, and control our actions. — Eric Kandel
[The] dynamics of computational artifacts extend beyond the interface narrowly defined, to relations of people with each other and to the place of computing in… — Lucy Suchman
I would suggest, merely as a metaphor here, but also as the basis for a scientific program to investigate the computational capacity of the universe,… — Seth Lloyd
Newton was a genius, but not because of the superior computational power of his brain. Newton's genius was, on the contrary, his ability to simplify,… — Gerald Weinberg
If behind popular fascination with Freudian theory there was a nervous, often guilty preoccupation with the self as sexual, behind increasing interest in computational interpretations… — Sherry Turkle
With thought comprising a non-computational element, computers can never do what we human beings can. — Roger Penrose
My father taught me Basic and rudimentary C, I learned everything else on my own, including studying computational complexity on my own. That's more a… — Bram Cohen
The three-pound organ in your skull - with its pink consistency of Jell-o - is an alien kind of computational material. It is composed of… — David Eagleman
Those are all computational engines that are highly distributed and therefore highly robust, .. We're seeing a very significant evolution in the way we even… — Vinton Cerf
My work was fairly theoretical. It was in recursive function theory. And in particular, hierarchies of functions in terms of computational complexity. I got involved… — Dennis Ritchie
In addition to their 'do no evil' motto, Googlers have always been guided by another, much less explicit philosophy: 'computational arrogance.' — Evgeny Morozov
It is time to create new social science departments that reflect the breadth and complexity of the problems we face as well as the novelty… — Nicholas A. Christakis
An ultimate joint challenge for the biological and the computational sciences is the understanding of the mechanisms of the human brain, and its relationship with… — Tony Hoare
As Bromberger observed, rules are understood to be elements of the computational systems that determine the sound and meaning of the infinite array of expressions… — Noam Chomsky
The brain is a complex biological organ possessing immense computational capability: it constructs our sensory experience, regulates our thoughts and emotions, and controls our actions. — Eric Kandel
We basically created a computational unit out of two brains. — Miguel Nicolelis
In this metaphor we actually have a picture of the computational universe, a metaphor which I hope to make scientifically precise as part of a… — Seth Lloyd
