We have tons of specialized components that work together cooperatively and competitively. There’s multiple ways they connect. There also seems to be global processes that happen, like during sleep. There’s over 3,000 cell types per the BRAIN initiative. Every brain forms on it’s own taking shape like something out of a Transformers movie.

God’s design is mostly nothing like man’s neural networks. It’s far superior. Brains are also what’s creating all the artificial, neural nets on top of all math, tech, and economic systems that they run on. AI’s got a lot of catching up to do.

I think it's way more than 8 even. And it's common to have many working as supervisors, often at conflict with each other. And some act out the automatic trauma responses, as they're stuck in the past when the trauma occurred.
