I think that is not the case at this time, because we have (or approaching) adequate tools to rationally dismiss that disbelief. The current AI &amp;quot;spring&amp;quot; has brought back the belief that connectionism may by the ultimate tool to explain the human brain. I mean you can&amp;#x27;t deny that DL models of vision look eerily like the early stages in visual processing in the brain (which is a very large part of it).
