I once asked a fellow on ATS 'if Descartes had been a woman would she have said 'I am therefore I think'?

so about the density of neurons and brain differences theres lots of factors like how foldy the brain is an how dense the neurons are but one thing i found interesting was when they measured how far the little traily bits on the neurons went, how localized the connections were, in the neural net or connectome as they call it. the right hemisphere turns out to have a measurably more spread out connectome, the neurons draw information from a spatially wider range than the left hemisphere. This makes intuitive sense to me, as the left hemisphere excels at tasks that quickly respond to definitive similar things, whereas the right hemisphere is better at drawing together seemingly unconnected signals into new models and ideas.
