Ugh! Even after reading linked article
<https://neurosciencenews.com/math-neurons-20067/> and skimming the paper
<https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(22)00116-6>, I don't get
the connection to quantum computing. OK, sure. Predictive processing, higher order
operators over distributions, and parallelism/connectionism all bear some relation to QC.
And, I guess, as we develop programming languages for QCs, it's reasonable they'll be
expressive enough to cover those types of computation better than languages we like to use
for ordinary computers. But otherwise, what am I missing? How does this have anything to do
with QC?

I haven't gone deep into this article yet, but the premise and some of the
factoids I tripped over were provocative. Touched on the Primate and Human
Subjects testing and neural (invasive) sensing stuff we've been rattling on
about here lately.
