On: Ray Kurzweil does not understand the brain

The essential point is that you can't model the behavior of a non-equilibrium system by modeling its constituent elements, which is what Kurzweil claims.

That no two non-equilibrium systems are exactly alike seems to me a different question.

I do computational fluid dynamics for a living. I assure you, we model non-equilibrium systems all the time.

You should have the math chops to read the papers then, which make the point better than I can.
