    VentureBeat[^]:

    These new chips won’t be programmed in the traditional way. Cognitive computers are expected to learn through experiences, find correlations, create hypotheses, remember, and learn from the outcomes. They mimic the brain’s “structural and synaptic plasticity.” The processing is distributed and parallel, not centralized and serial. With no set programming, the computing cores that the researchers have built can mimic the event-driven brain, which wakes up to perform a task.

    In other words, you're about to be outsourced... to a CPU.

        In other words, computers are about to become irrational, massively paranoid and subject to huge performance differences depending on how much they had to drink last night. I hope they don't snore in sleep mode.

          The big question is, will it have a pain inducing instruction? More importantly, will it actually be able to fee the pain?
