When researchers estimated the speed of information flow in the human brain as just 10 bits per second, it revealed a stark contrast to digital connectivity.
Markus Meister noted, 'If you actually try to put numbers to it, we are incredibly slow,' highlighting the brain's limitations despite its complexity.
The study, published in the journal Neuron, was aimed at providing empirical measures of the brain's information processing, challenging perceived notions of its power.
Dr. Meister's methodology involved analyzing how quickly individuals perform tasks to ascertain the rate of information flow in the brain.
