Our minds aren’t equipped to handle AI

The article challenges the prevailing view that the human brain functions like a computer. While industry leaders often describe the mind as a biological Turing machine, the author argues this computational model is a limited and warped representation of human cognition.

Instead, the piece highlights the feedback-control model proposed by neuroscientist Paul Cisek. This perspective suggests that brains evolved not to process information, but to actively control our environment through continuous interaction, much like a circuit rather than a simple input-output algorithm.
