Can Neurons From Other Modalities Beyond Motor Control

Entities in the same semantic neighborhood but without a typed relation to this one — candidates for new edges or unrecognized duplicates.

• Can Consciousness Be Attributed To Systems Beyond Brainsquestion0.762
• Neurons can correspond to interpretable functional roles but interpretations in terms of individual neurons are unlikely to be the most parsimoniousclaim0.754
  Claim from footnote 3, acknowledging neuron-level interpretability while arguing subcomponents are better.
• If different organizations of nervous tissue can achieve the same functions, the possibility that cognitive capacities, including sentience, can be achieved by other tissues should be considered.claim0.744
  Conditional claim urging consideration of non-neural tissues for cognition.
• The deep insights of neurobiology have relevance far beyond neurons.claim0.742
  Claim that principles of neurobiology apply to other tissues and systems.
• Polysemantic neurons are a major challenge for the circuits agenda, because N meanings in one neuron times M in another creates NxM effective connections that cannot be considered individually.claim0.740
  Precise characterization of why polysemanticity poses a combinatorial obstacle to circuit analysis
• Cognitive capacities including sentience can be achieved by non-neural tissueshypothesis0.738
  Central hypothesis: sentience is not exclusive to neural systems; other biological substrates may achieve felt states.
• Non-neural morphogenetic agents satisfy most sentience criteria via electrically active cells rather than neuronsfinding0.738
  Empirical basis for expanding sentience frameworks; shows Crump criteria adaptable beyond traditional neurocentric definitions.
