Primate neural architecture that’s really scalable in comparison to the brains of other kinds of species. Brain size doesn't determine intelligence, but it does set the upper limit for intelligence and memory capacity. Just like how whales are intelligent and elephants have good memory.
The human brain processes conscious thoughts at 10 bits per second, while our sensory systems collect environmental information at an astounding rate of one billion bits per second - a difference of 100 million times. Our consciousness operates serially, processing one thought at a time, unlike our parallel-processing sensory systems.
This limitation stems from our brain's computational constraints, suggesting we've reached the maximum potential of primate brain evolution. Supporting this theory, historical evidence shows that Neanderthals, despite possessing larger brains than Homo sapiens (as indicated by brain scaling measurements), became extinct without showing superior cognitive abilities.

In 2005, a letter published in Nature described human neurons responding to specific people, such as Jennifer Aniston or Halle Berry. The exciting thing was that they did so regardless of whether they were shown photographs, drawings, or even images of the person’s name. The neurons were multimodal. You are looking at the far end of the transformation from metric, visual shapes to conceptual information.
