@AndyMasley I think asserting that mental functionalism is independently very likely seems a bit much

@AndyMasley Conclusion could be true but the argument as written fails. Glia play substantial roles in "neural" computation, there are 2-3 OOMs more synapses in a human brain than parameters in the largest ANNs to date, and modeling a single synapse properly requires hundreds of parameters.
