Brains and computers operate very differently. The biggest difference is that brains are massively parallel, with potentially millions and millions of simultaneous processes being handled.

Computers can simulate doing several things at once, but it's an illusion caused by switching between tasks very rapidly. In reality, only one block of 32 or 64 bits can be processed at any instant.

Another profound difference is that the fundamental element of a brain, a neuron, is part wire, part processor. The 'wire' is fairly digital, and transmits pulses at varying rates. The 'processor' carries out a bizarre half analogue, half digital operation.

Incoming wires from other neurons feed into the processor - thousand of incoming connections in some cases. The processor 'weights' the incoming wires according to its training. Some wires are treated as very strong stimuli; and others as strong inhibitors. Others will get lesser or greater weighting, which may be positive or negative depending on what each connection's weighting is.

If the total of all the incoming signals is positive enough, the processor will 'fire' and send a stream of pulses down its wire, with a pulse rate proportion to the total incoming signal.
