Does the brain execute a predetermined sequence of commands?

[jk22]

What if the brain received simply a list of commands to execute, like a processor ?

Hence all the visualization were just a creation of an internal geometry.

Fatality is then unavoidable since the commands have to be executed and since the datas are one dimensional, there were no way to escape.

HUH ?

Do you mean: what if the "brain in a vat" thought experiment were taken literally?

To you young'uns, that's The Matrix.

Those constraints on input are insufficient to constrain the brain to a form of "fatality", as you put it.

1] Even if we played a fixed stream of data to the brain - a la The Matrix or similar BiaV setup, there's no requirement for the brain to process it any particular way or in any particular order. The brain is not a linear processor.

2] By the time it can be considered a living brain, it has already developed sufficiently to essentially be unique - unlike any other brain -simply due to the experiences it's already had. Those experiences form a bedrock upon which new sensory input is laid. In other words, the same data, fed to two different brains will be processed differently.

I'm still at the stage of HUH ?

I had to reread it a half dozen times before it started to make sense. It's sparse in details but you can fill in the implicit details with enough brow sweat.

Alas. Looks like a drive-by.

Well, the OP has 600 posts. You'd think he'd have learned by now how to make more sense.
