I am an electrical engineer with various graduate degrees. The human
brain as a system is interesting. Neurology is from a medical
point of view. Neuroscience is more general though not
into systems enough. One passion I have is to produce or see
produced machine intelligence that can self evolve.
There is no magic, even in biological intelligence.
We need sibling intelligences and the ETs are not showing up
on cue.
I have discussed these issues for years at alt.philosophy.
I find the several AI newsgroups too narrow.
I have other passions.
