A new theoretical framework argues that the long-standing split between computational functionalism and biological naturalism misses how real brains actually compute.

Amazon, Microsoft, and IBM are all racing to build a quantum computer. But the technology's feasibility is as hazy as its physics.

Right now, the debate about consciousness often feels frozen between two entrenched positions. On one side sits computational ...
